Summary: spring cleaning time Keywords: rm -rf / Message-ID: <9278@plains.NoDak.edu> Date: 31 Mar 91 01:59:59 GMT Organization: DEW Crew. Lines: 23 I just got a note from our VM/CMS system programmer / postmaster on vm1.nodak.edu, and he would like me to prune the 60 Megabytes of info-minix list logs. I'd like suggestions on how to do this. A couple to start with: * manually go thru and pull out sources which are obsolete or duplicated elsewhere (plains) I don't like this idea, and probably won't do it myself. * cut off at a certain date Let this also serve as a warning that said archive WILL be pruned in the Near future. This does not affect the archive on plains.nodak.edu. -- Glen Overby uunet!plains!overby (UUCP) overby@plains (Bitnet)
