Now if someone would just find a way to incorporate the old Usenet on
CD archives and, perhaps, take donations of single articles that
people may have archived personally.
A few years ago (probably 1992-1994??) at least one company produced monthly
CDs containing Usenet postings.
I seem to remember reading somewhere that were for use on Sun workstations or
similar, since the CDs used the workstation's native filesystem rather than
ISO 9660. Maybe they changed that for later CDs.
Does anyone have any of these Usenet CDs?
