Just where is all this CP/M software to be found. I got a polite but firm
request NOT to post CP/M source or binaries to comp.os.cpm, and there are
no other CP/M related newsgroups in the UUCP world. As so often happens,
the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is up to: internet / arpanet /
bitnet may well have these forums, BUT IN THE UUCP WORLD WE HAVE NOTHING.
As a result I have had to mail out innumerate copies of a pair of shars
one 68K and one 88K, cause in UUCP land we have nothing.

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Mr. Moody, reconsider and allow CP/M binaries /
source so that we CP/M'ers in UUCP land have something.
