- INTRODUCTION TO SOFTWARE.WATSON.IBM.COM
-
- Welcome to the IBM FTP Server. In case of problems or for suggestions
- for improvement, contact Nicholas R. Trio (nrt@watson.ibm.com
- I probably can't help much with the fixes, etc. myself since
- I just put the stuff out here they send me, but I can help if you're
- having a problem with this server. If I'm not at my desk, just leave
- me a message...do not call anyone else since they can't help you.
- Also don't ask when stuff might show up or how to use the software
- here since I probably can't help on that.
