:
: Our files are stored on our campus VAX/VMS computers. The

: software. Access to the files can be slow, which means
: that during a File Request your BBS might time-out while my
: BBS is locating the files.
:
: The machine the files are stored on is down for backups on
: Friday evenings, so don't try to get anything from me
: Friday evenings.
:
: The files may soon be moved to a Unix computer on campus.
: This should speed up the file access. In addition, we will
: likely make the collection available via anonymous FTP on
: the Internet at that time.
