    I got VDE off of SIMTEL-20 but I understand that that is no longer
    in operation for our purposes (unfortunately).

Cory, you misunderstood.  We're still here.  Funding prematurely ran
out for the full-time maintenance of the CP/M and MSDOS collections
for the rest of this FY - i.e., until the end of September.  The
collections remain where they are, and BITNET access through RPIECS
and NDSUVM1, and other continue on as they were.  We expect at least
a minimum level of funding to resume the tasks, beginning in October.
There are no guarantees, and TANSTAAFL.
