    Howard Chu and I have been running an archive of Atari ST 
files for students and faculty of the University of Michigan. We 
are now almost ready to go public and service the world. 
 
    We are an ideal site for an archive. We have unlimited 
computing time and nearly unlimited disk storage on our mainframe. 
We are accessable via Bitnet and will soon be accessable through 
FTP. The host is at the hub of the new NSFnet, and our Internet 
connectivity is unbeatable. We haven't found a good way for UUCP 
sites to get at the archives yet, but that too will come soon.
 
    At the moment, we are in the process of collecting more 
software to put in the archives. Recently, a lot of people have 
been posting news of new ports (gnuchess, gcc, moria, nethack, 
etc.) We'd like to get a copy of all of those and all of the other 
new ports for the archives. If you have software that you'd like 
to post to our archive, then please mail it or ftp it to me.
 
    If you want to submit a program by mail then send it to:
                     dyer@math.lsa.umich.edu
 
    If you want to ftp to it to me then do this...
                         ftp 35.195.16.2
                            Name: FTP
                        Password: WHATEVER
                 Then send us whatever you got...
        {grab some stuff for yourself while you're at it}
 
    Remember, we have unlimited disk space so size is no object. 
(ie, 1.5 megs of arced GCC sources are no problem) If you have any 
questions about the technical aspects of our service, ask Howard. 
(hyc@math.lsa.umich.edu). If you have questions about the files or 
how/what to submit, ask me.
