R: OpenVMS software repositories?

[Mazzini Alessandro]

Tin user here.

Just use : diesel.cu.mi.it  as usenet server
(another alternative would be registering for a free free.xsusenet.com account, but that one needs to be renewed every few weeks. Anyway they warn and send a link every time)

I’m sure.  I just need to figure out how to get access, preferably with ’tin'.  One of the reasons I dropped off was time, another was my ISP dropping USENET access.
