I too have had no luck in recent requests to UACE. In the last post of files
available there was some mention of not being able to service anyone whose
system is not connected to BITNET... :-(. About six months ago I did get some
files I requested, however.

I have never gotten any sort of answer from LISTSERV to numerous requests of
mine.

I haven't gotten an answer from this server either.

We here at lakesys' netlib will be happy to process requests for the files we
have. If authors would like to send us their work, we'll make it available.
Hopefully being accessable via UUCP will enable us to reach numerous sites.

To get our index, send the following to netlib@lakesys.UUCP:

send index from archives.atari

I absolutely agree!
