A Larner in Cambridge has offered to set up an anonymous FTP to allay all the
requests for reposting Larn 12.0.  When it actually comes to pass, the
address will be posted to the net.  I am not mentioning his name here to
protect the innocent.  It is not installed yet because I have been reniging
on my responsibility to get him the sources.  Soon... soon...

Noah Morgan's 12.0 will be residing there, and any version changes that
Noah sends on down will live there as well (and I'm sure Noah will post
them to the net as well).

Also, Mark Nagel (author of the VAX/VMS port) has given permission for his
ported version to be made available at the site.

Lastly, I have heard of a couple of folks attempting MS-DOS ports too.  I
will ask them permission to make their versions available for the FTP.


Again, watch net.games for the announcement of the Cambridge FTP.

Jim
