- Yes, that's exactly what Petra is all about. I read through the
- text files accompanying petra and it says there that Petra is
- shareware and may be distributed via BBS and PD systems. So I
- figured I could upload it to an ftp site. I chose athene.uni-
- paderborn.de, because that's where I found Paula. Petra's current
- location at athene.uni-paderborn.de is /atari/incoming/petra.arj.
- Doing anonymous ftp, you can't view the incoming/ directory, but
- you can still download petra with the ordinary "get petra.arj"
- command.
- I'm telling this in such detail because I'm not sure if my way of
- uploading to the ftp site was correct. Especially, I'm wondering
- whether I'm supposed to drop a note to the manager of the ftp
- site explaining what the uploaded stuff is. Any comment on this
- would be appreciated.

- P.S.: If Jon (jonal@sofus.dhalden.no) reads this: You asked me
- about Petra via mail and I tried to answer you. However, the mail
- kept bouncing (unknown host). Anyway, I hope this information is
- what you were looking for.
