You will notice that bitsavers looks exactly the same as it did as
an anonymous ftp site on its previous host.
It would be nice if Bitsavers' host allowed anonymous FTP. One of the
inferior things that Web browsers do, in my view, is date-stamp a
downloaded file with today's date rather than the date from the host. I
have to use wget to download files via http if I want correct time stamps.
Jay, would you consider enabling anonymous FTP access to bitsavers.org?
