  Could anyone reading this newgroup tell me whether there is a listserver or
  ftp server out there anywhere which I could use to get copies of files at the
  University of Vaasa (Finland) site?

  I tried using BITFTP@PUCC.BITNET but received the following reply from that
  server:

02:44:13 >>>> Access to the Scandinavian nodes has been
02:44:14 >>>> discontinued, due to the slowness
02:44:14 >>>> and unreliability of the network connections.
02:44:14 >>>> Please try to confine your BITFTP requests
02:44:14 >>>> to North American nodes.  Thank you.


  I would appreciate any information that anyone can provide.
