Two questions always bother me whether I see offerings of programs in VMS or
DEC.MICRO.  Most offerors know what the program is / does / how to reconstitute
the as-sent.  I usually lack that info.  All I have is Kermit to move from my
Sun or VAX onto RB-100, then on arrival, I have the 8088 assembler.

It would be very much appreciated if someone published from time to time a 
compendium of prog name, use, size, tools to rebuild, what/where pub-domain
tools can be found to rebuild, (e.g. BOO files, ... , public MS-C, whatever
and where if anywhere these are archived?  

That may be a bit much to request.  The files are not going to be enjoyed,
nor the author agrandised, if slow-poke's like me doing 20 other things, 
cant figure what to do nor how to do with the offerings.

Is there a RB-100 Specific Kermit since 2.29.1 (4 Jul 86)?  What happened to
the two guys who were working on the RB-100 upgrades to Kermit-MS?  I found
that the fellow who had worked at Basic American Foods in Stockton, CA, has
moved on.
