I was just noticing that there is this wonderful newsgroup called
net.sources.mac where folks post sources and binaries for all kinds of
public domain Macintosh software.  Why isn't there such a thing for the
Apple //+ - //e - //c owners?  And since there isn't one, how do we go about
obtaining such software?  I`m told by *reliable* people that jillions of
public domain programs exist for Apple //'s.  Anybody want to point me in
the right direction?

Rather than start some debate about the creation of newsgroups, if
there are PD programs out there to post, by God POST THEM!  Try
net.sources, net.micro.apple, whatever.  The comm channels are in
place... we're waiting.  And if this anticipated deluge is more than
other groups can swallow, then the creation of a special newgroup will
take care of itself.

Ready and waiting,
