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.cs.ucla.edu (128.97.2.2).  The files are in the directory /pub.  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.

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 you don't have FTP access and we would like to be added to the mailing
list, send me a note to that effect.  I will not mail you older programs
from the archive.  If you want to get caught up, you'll have to send me
either a standard tape (NOT cartridge) or a number of (8") floppies.  My
mailing address is:

                        Scott Turner
                        AI Lab
                        3677 Boelter Hall
                        UCLA
                        Los Angeles, CA 90024

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.
