Unfortunately, many sites also restrict accessability.  (Developers doing
System 5 work can get in trouble for reading net.sources).  Other problems
include security of calling out (got a phone # to SIMTEL-20?).

The explanation for this was that source posted to net.sources was public
only to berknet users.  How public are net.sources?

Some Sites, (Europe...) don't get them at all.

Post here and include net.sources in the newsgroups.

Shall we vote?
