I like to maintain a monthly update to my Digital Librarian indexed version
of comp.sys.next newsgroups. I have been using nova.cc.purdue.edu (or
sonata), but the maintenance of these archives is really slipping. For
instance, the hardware, advocacy, marketplace, and software groups have not
been archived since they were started. Some of the Current files in those
newsgroups are several MBs. Also, recent archives of the other groups are
not compressed, because year old versions of the same files are still around.
(I've posted a friendly message to the archive management to no avail).

Anybody have an alternate sight with current maintenance and anonymous ftp
access for the comp.sys.next newsgroups, preferably on a monthly basis?

Thanks,
Michael McCulloch

P.S. What about the NeXT community having a fund drive for the Purdue 
archives so they can purchase more HD space? I'd contribute...
