Well for me I want to know just what I can download
off a bitsavers
mirror.
Overall that's up to Al, but each mirror may have some preferences as
well.
My own advice is download any manuals you need when you need them. You do
not need to download entire copies of bitsavers just to preserve the files
for posterity. There are currently 9 mirrors and they are around the globe.
At a typical 10 to 70 meg PDF it does add up on both
sides. I would like
bitsavers
to stick around for a few more years at least, rather than 'slurped' dry.
I
think it's safe to say bitsavers will be around. Al and 9 mirrors make
that likely :)
