1. How about anonymous UUCP?

2. How about if those of us with tape drives send you formatted cartridges
   and you fill them up and send them back?  Then we open up our machines
   for anonymous UUCP.

3. How about a source-of-the-month club where you post one piece of source
   a month?  This will spread the load on the network over time.  Perhaps
   we can run a survey on which programs we'd like to see and you post the
   most popular ones first.
