A great deal of work has been put into making this collection, and both DECUS and Washington University would like to thank the many people who spent the thousands of hours necessary to make it possible. The VMS and L&T SIG tapes are available for anonymous FTP from wuarchive.wustl.edu [128.252.135.4]. All of the various parts of this tape are stored in the directory "/decus/vms93a" and "/decus/lt93a". Please retrieve the file "COPYING" first since it contains important information you will need to copy the BACKUP savesets. Please note that wuarchive.wustl.edu is a dedicated archive system and may be used without restriction 24 hours per day, 7 days per week. Washington University regrets that under no circumstances can it provide copies of the DECUS Symposia on any form of media, nor can it honor requests for individual files from the Symposia tapes. Questions about the Washington University archives (only) should be e-mailed to archives@wugate.wustl.edu. The approximate sizes of the SIG tapes are shown below, in kilobytes (1 kilobyte is 2 disk blocks): decuslib 10760 KB idx93a 20451 KB lt93a 95493 KB * vms93a 150379 KB * Note: the GNU software has been removed from the lt93a saveset.
