In going thru the old FIDO RB archive I found a msg from a BBS sysop
saying he had received the entire DECUS librairie on MAG tape. Does
anyone on the list have this or is it available somewhere ?

I don't think it's all there but Tim Shoppa at
http://www.trailing-edge.com/ is a good place to start.

Would that have been from Gary Stebbins, on Glacier Peak Rainbow? FidoNet-

Yep. And interestingly enough a lot of your messages to the group were
also archived there. I originally got the archived FIDO msgs from the Swedish
Rainbow archives. Oct 89 to Feb 91. Don't know if they're still there. Do you
still have contact with any of that group or know what might have happened
to the files from Glacier Peak Rainbow, Silver Bullet, or Pot of Gold BBS's ?

the files were given to Jim laferrier(sp) IIRC when Gary pulled the plug on glacier peak
rainbow. our local dec group d:Bug (Dec Bellevue users Group) kinda foundered when one of
the main people passed away :(
Do you have a link to the archives?

It's a great FTP site. Has a lot of DEC files; Rainbow, Professional,
DecMate, PDP8, PDP11 and other folders. The Rainbow Fido ones are in
the rainbow/docs folder. Have you by any chance any contact with Jim
Laferrier or any other of the old sysops ?

DECUS is here.... http://www.classiccmp.org/PDP-11/
Note that the URL is case sensitive... look in each of the "freeware"
directories under the OS
