As moderator of Ibm-nets let me put your mind at ease that Ibm-nets has
not been killed off although it has been slightly injured.  I recently
discovered that the Ibm-nets list was corrupted which may be part of the
reason for held files to Ibm-nets.  I checked with Eric Thomas who informed
me that the entire Listserv disk was corrupted so the backup copy that
Listserv keeps was also damaged.  I then checked with Bitnic where I was
informed that no backup was run for 2 months during the summer so the only
restorable copy is from after when the corruption occurred.  I luckily
have a copy of the list from mid-July which I am sending to Bitnic to
replace the current mucked up copy and Ibm-nets should start to function
properly again albeit with a distribution list from July 15th.
