We (like many others) no longer have ftp access due to the changes in
bitftp's policy. I very much appreciate the service they provided ...

I would be interested in someone/s in the know summarizing what led
to the change -- I assume that too much success did them in?

Is anyone aware of plans for a similar service being set up by someone else?
Free is always great, but I would also be interested in commercial services.

With the loss of this unique resource, we all need to include (when known)
the names of email-based servers that contain a particular piece of
software (as well as the usually-included list of ftp sites).

Yes, I know not having ftp sounds like an archaic situation -- I guess it is ...
but I think there are a lot of us out here ...

[We have been off of the net for 2 weeks -- recovering from disk problems,
etc. -- I guess our system IS archaic! -- so if this topic has already been
flogged, could someone kindly email me the discussion/s?]

Thanks!
