OK Folks !
I have received several notes and messages about the
distribution of our software and documents via the net.
Let's understand a few basic points here:
ISSUE: I don'thave access to ftp to outside systems from hou2d.
If someone has such a package with source for a 3B1 and sends me a
DISK, I will get it going. I think I can get a network connection
at NJIT, but I will entertain other offers.
ISSUE: Hate mail for using the net for distribution.
The response has been as follows:
2 mailer generated messages signalling error.
2 human generated messages saying No Good.
6 human generated messages saying Thanks.
I wished every comment I make on the net could fair this well!
One interesting note: one of the messages that said "Don't do
it" came from an individual who doesn't like AFT and is
PUSHING SLIP...
I will re-examine the distribution mechanism and see what makes sense.
I will probably forward out the code through "comp.protocols.iso"
in the future. I will continue to send out documents and announcements
via several groups.
Comments?
Thanks,
J. Gordon Beattie, Jr.
