No offense Peter. Wouldn't this problem be solved if Peter moderated comp.sources.amiga and the current moderators at Purdue maintained the archives? It might be desirable to have a method for getting the sources directly to Purdue so they won't have the problem you discussed. Would you care who did the moderating so long as the archives were available to you? I recognize you might be concerned that some things posted to the newsgroup might not make it into the archives if they are in different places. However, I don't think that's too difficult a problem to overcome. Surely Peter and Craig can come up with a reliable system for handling the archives. --Fabbian Dufoe 350 Ling-A-Mor Terrace South St. Petersburg, Florida 33705 813-823-2350 UUCP: ...gatech!codas!usfvax2!jc3b21!fgd3
