- I cannot help immediatly, however there is a group of FidoNet sysops and
- myself that are working on a project that will get those files from the Fido
- side of the house and move them over to the Internet side. We are hoping to
- go through a few test runs in the next few months.

- Please: I have the Folowup-To: set to myself. Please do not send me a lot
- of mail about this, things are still in the planning stages. If you (or
- anyone else) think that they can be of service, please let me know.
