Are you serious? Jason is currently sweating his balls off trying to save at least a

Does it really matter *where* the information is stored? IA? Bitsavers? What?s stopping
someone mirroring what IA grabs and pitting it into bitsavers? Do you really think now is
the time to whine about archival philosophy? Is there anyone involved in bitsavers
grabbing stuff from that warehouse?
I certainly feel bitsavers is a good model
Too bad Jason Scott doesn't "get it"
He destroyed the organizational schema of bitsavers when he "mirrored" it
and had his little band of minions "curate" it for IA.
THAT is why I will have nothing to do with him.
