DISTRIBUTION

The main distribution is through anonymous FTP login.  I will also mail
to people without ARPA access.  An anonymous FTP login is available on
zeus.ucla.edu.  The files are in the directory /pub.  The files (with the
exception of the compress program) are compressed.  Only the most recently
released software is in /pub.  I will place older stuff there for you on
request.  We can also load a tape or diskette for you if you have no net
access.  The current sites on the mailing list are:

        Expected to do FTP

        peterson@utah-cs.arpa
        dhv@harvard.harvard.edu
        shull@wharton-10.arpa
        ezf@cc5.bbn.com
        david@mc.lcs.mit.edu
        ram@yale.arpa
        shulman@spca.bbn.com

        Poor Relations

        amdcad!fredel@riacs.arpa
        cadovax!scgvaxd!ihnp4!ihwpt!crocker
        apollo!nazgul@eddie.mit.edu
        dennis%cod@nosc.arpa
        sdcrdcf!psivax!scgvaxd!hacvlsi!iketani
        dual!bigtuna!brianm@decwrl-gw.arpa

I am no longer distributing to CSNET sites because of the flakiness of
that connection.  I make one attempt to send to each Poor Relation.  If
it doesn't make it, too bad.  If mail to you is consistently flaky, I
stop mailing to you.

If your site isn't on this list, and you'd like to receive some of the
archived programs and be added to the list for future mailings, send mail
to srt@locus.ucla.edu or ...!ucla-cs!srt, indicating what you'd like to
receive.

CONTRIBUTIONS

If you'd like to contribute a program, all you have to do is mail it in
any form to me.  If you're on ARPAnet, I can FTP it from you if that is
more convenient.  I'm actively seeking new contributions, and hope that
you'll have something interesting.

If you'd like to contribute money, we can make special arrangements.  For
instance, I'd be willing to drive over to your house if it isn't too far.
I also cut lawns.
