All but the "spamming the world" part. The Web and FTP sites should
done, but could use some checking. Of particular note on the website:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ckermit.html
The new C-Kermit 8.0 page. The Documentation section
contains links to the many new Web documents, many of which
existed only in plain-text format before, and all of which are
seriously updated.
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ckututor.html
The new C-Kermit tutorial-and-man-page for Unix.
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ck80binaries.html
The new table of prebuilt C-Kermit binaries. Yes, it's an actual
table, and it's big -- takes a some time to load.

How to submit MORE binaries <-- Please do!
Of particular interest is the "tarball" and Zip archive packaging scheme
and installation procedure:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ckermit.html#download
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ckuins.html#x5
and especially:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ckuins.html#x5.4
which raises the whole question of "install packages", discussed here:
http://www.columbia.edu/kermit/ck80packages.html
Anyway, please let me know if anything seems amiss, and please send in
missing binaries according to the instructions provided. Let's try to
have at least 250 before we go public! (We're only 5 short at the moment.)
Thanks!
