I just took a look at the SIMTEL arechives on the Walnut Creek CP/M
disk, and they appear to have all the disks (judging by the directors)
up through volume 310. Take a look at:
http://www.rain.org/~marvin/sigm.txt
if you want to see what has already been saved from the SIG/M archives.
For some reason, I can't ftp the sigm.txt file and the amount that gets
transferred before it chokes varies each time I do it. The txt file
there currently has most of the listings but is missing some stuff at
the end. But in any case, it appears that what you have has already been
saved. If you do take a look at the list, note that there *are* some
typos in the list.
I just received some 8" diskettes that I
"won" on e-pay. I was only
buying used SSSD diskettes, but when they arrived they contained files.
They are SIG/M #81 through #120 and #161 through #176.
My question is this. Are these files already archived and preserved for
the "community" or should I spend some time (lots of time, actually) and
get the files to a CD or something similar so those of us who are
interested in CP/M history have them?
I don't mind doing it, but I don't want to spend this time if it is
already done.
Thanks,
