You might wish to add ISIS to your list; I just received reprints of all 
of the papers, as well as a bound manual (the manual is $15.00) from The 
ISIS Project.  If you want the same things, just send mail to 
schiz@gvax.cs.cornell.edu with the subject line "I want ISIS" and ask for 
the papers and, if you don't mind receiving an invoice for $15, the 
manual.  Just tell 'em what mailing address to send everything to.  The 
ISIS software itself is available from Cornell as well, either on tape or 
via anonymous FTP; The ISIS Project will tell you how to get it once you 
receive your written materials.
