- I like to maintain a monthly update to my Digital Librarian indexed version
- of comp.sys.next newsgroups. I have been using nova.cc.purdue.edu (or
- sonata), but the maintenance of these archives is really slipping. For
- instance, the hardware, advocacy, marketplace, and software groups have not
- been archived since they were started. Some of the Current files in those
- newsgroups are several MBs. Also, recent archives of the other groups are
- not compressed, because year old versions of the same files are still around.
- (I've posted a friendly message to the archive management to no avail).
-
- Anybody have an alternate sight with current maintenance and anonymous ftp
- access for the comp.sys.next newsgroups, preferably on a monthly basis?

- P.S. What about the NeXT community having a fund drive for the Purdue
- archives so they can purchase more HD space? I'd contribute...
