  I have seen and participated in the on going exchange of "..I got
this working on my next with little porting effort.. " discussions,
and i have one sugestion.  
  Why can't we get some of these "fixed" sources posted on the
archives?  Some of us, like myself, are trully novice C hacks, and
there is just no way i could get some of these thigs up and running
on my cube if it wasn't for all the help I get from people on the
net, and my old neighbor who is a next owner and system
administrator/C programer.  Unfortunatley, i do not live next to him
anymore, and many others out there are probably not so lucky.
  I think we should get a new directory in the archives at purdue
where we can all take advantage of each others effort!
  When this newsgroup finally splits up, and i vote yes for the
slpit, perhaps we should devote a group to helping each other make
these ports.
