- Given that the current pcomm sources / binaries (basically) do not work
- would it not be sensible to purge them from the main ftp sites, and
- (if possible) replace them with some that do? At present they're just
- a kind of mine waiting to explode in the face of the beginner.
-
- The same applies to xcomm, though to a much lesser extent. (I'd be
- happy to contribute my slightly-tidied version of the xcomm sources).

- PS
- Can anyone remind me where the sources for rz/sz live? I found them
- once but seem to have purged them from my machine a while back...
