DemoNews is a weekly publication dedicated to the demo scene. It is
|
||
|
|
produced at the Internet FTP site ftp.eng.ufl.edu (aka WASP or HORNET).
|
||
|
|
This newsletter focuses on all aspects of demos and demo-making (including
|
||
|
|
music, art, and coding).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
There are currently three active demo-operators at this site:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Dan Wright (Pallbearer) - dmw@eng.ufl.edu
|
||
|
|
Christopher G. Mann (Snowman) - r3cgm@dax.cc.uakron.edu
|
||
|
|
Mike - weis@elf.stuba.sk
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This site is mirrored by the following ftps:
|
||
|
|

|
||
|
|
ftp.luth.se
|
||
|
|

SPACE
|

|
|
|
||
|
|
We hit our 400Meg limit this week--again. Anyone got a spare GIG hard
|
||
|
|
drive (SCSI) or $700 they can donate for a worthy cause? Till then I
|
||
|
|
will continue to bug the Sys Admins for more space...like asking them
|
||
|
|
to delete some of those 20Meg files in the /pub directory. Chances
|
||
|
|
are it will not help but it is worth trying...till it backfires and
|
||
|
|
people start wondering why this stuff called "demos" is located here.

|

|

Hello everyone. I start school this week, and I'll have time to spend
|
||
|
|
at the computer lab, so HORNET may go through some cool new changes. I think
|
||
|
|
I'm going to experiment with ANSI in some of the directories. We'll see how
|
||
|
|
this works out. It will depend a lot on your response. Also, the .message
|
||
|
|
files (that automatically display text when you enter a particular directory)
|
||
|
|
are going to be standardized, and the /programming directory should be
|
||
|
|
straightened up too.
|
||
|
|
A lot of files were deleted this week because they did not have a
|
||
|
|
text description file. In the future, I plan to delete all uploads that do
|
||
|
|
not have a .txt file with them. Due to the traffic that goes through HORNET,
|
||
|
|
it is no longer feasible to search .zip files for these descriptions. Sorry
|
||
|
|
for the inconvienience.
|
||
|
|
A couple of you have written me in response to your files being
|
||
|
|
deleted. Remember, I have no control over this. If you will donate a hard
|
||
|
|
drive, we can allow files to remain online much longer. Until then, your
|
||
|
|
uploads have about a month life expectency.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
