It brings the question to mind: how many NeXT archives are needed? I hate to suggest something so radical as a cooperative effort, but I'm finding it hard to resist the temptation. Perhaps NeXT itself could administer a single archive with a liberal contributor policy? Perhaps those who've offered already might replicate each other to spread the load or at least maintain pointers to each other to allow NeXTers to navigate through the maze? Perhaps? -- +-DLS (dls@mace.cc.purdue.edu)
