	I disagree completely. Perhaps YOU don't want them, but I
can assure you, many people do! I constantly get requests for FTP sites
for Empire and CRobots, and each posting of them has generated even more
thanks. If you don't have the space, and are receiving them directly on
your Amiga, I am sorry, but I am sure more people would rather get them
through a newsgroup instead of having to find the correct address to ask
for the latest version.
	The net is the perfect place to keep the current versions of most
PD software posted. By having it appear periodically you can be sure that
most people will have a fairly current version. If you depend on people
asking specifically for something, much less would appear. I am
willing to bet most people would rather just grab what came by as they
see it, if it interests them, than to have to send private mail to the
authors of programs they like asking for the latest version.

		Dave
