Don't you love coincidences?

I have just completed organising an anonymous ftp directory for OS/2
software.  It is software from mims (comp.binaries.os2), mtsg.ubc in
Canada and the blekull11 bitnet listserver.  Note this site is not a
mirror, merely a collection from various places.  There are quite a
few files organised in a few subdirectories (which might change
depending on software that comes in - I am not all that happy with the
way it looks now).  There is an annotated Index file.

The site is:  archive.latrobe.edu.au (131.172.2.2)
Log in the usual way, username anonymous and password your internet
name.

Given that I do not have any software that is not already available
in the U.S. (at the above mentioned sites) and Europe (re: the recent
posting by Kari Likovuori at the University of Helsinki) I strongly
urge looking on these respective continents for software first.

The software is on a DECstation 2100 that is our network gateway.
It is on the Australian Academic Research Network (AARNet) which is
directly connected to the Internet.

If you want other public domain/shareware software there are other
sites handling/mirroring simtel, cica, zaphod, etc.  Again, let me
stress that I expect most users to be Australian-based.  If you are
in Europe or America you will get a faster feed from your respective
ftp sites.
