Currently there is discussion of posted binaries, posting of archive information, and requests for reposts or mailing. There are also a lot of posts which belong in other groups, but those will be with us forever. The proposed groups: comp.binaries.ibm.pc.d # discussion of postings comp.binaries.ibm.pc.archives # info on archive sites comp.binaries.ibm.pc.wanted # requests for reposts I think the result will be information organized in a way which allows selective reading, posting, expiration, and archiving. -- bill davidsen (davidsen@crdos1.crd.GE.COM -or- uunet!crdgw1!crdos1!davidsen) "Most of the VAX instructions are in microcode, but halt and no-op are in hardware for efficiency"
