When does the archive at Soda get updated for this newsgroup?  I am in 
the process of updating my warrior library and will be collecting all
of the warriors ever posted to this newsgroup.  The last archive put 
at Soda was in March.  Who is in charge of this archive and when will
it get updated next?  

When I finish with my warrior library, I will be sure to announce it
and place it out on FTP.  It will be compatible with IBM PC's (this means
that I will have to truncate some filenames) and will all be very
organized.  I think I will have them sorted as follows:
    rec.games.corewar posting, valentine tournament, some of my own,
    various years of ICWS tournaments (all separated by year), and 
    finally the traditional warriors (dwarf, imp, etc).

My intention is to make these warriors easily accessable to my impending
release of the next version of Core Wars Deluxe.  The new version will
allow you to specify a list of paths (in a config file even) that will
guarentee you that if it could not find the given warrior in the current
directory, then it will search your warrior patch and use the first 
warrior it finds that matches what you supplied on the command line.
This will make it easier to sort your warriors when developing new ones
to test against the vast arsenal of what you have already collected.

Incedentally... there will be about 200 warriors in this collection. 
They will all be unmodified from the original posting.  The ones I 
have collected from other sources will be left unmodified by me, but
I cannot guarentee that they weren't modfied before I got them to 
begin with. 

If you would like to add *your* warriors to this library, just send 
Email to me and we will discuss them.   Send mail to sadkins@ohiou.edu.

Thanks.
Scott
