It's sign up time!

If you would like to host a mirror of the 'ASCII Documents Archive' at your
site, please let me know at my email address...

If we think about it, only one GeoCities site needs to host it. I know lots
of people have GeoCities sites, but having lots of GeoCities mirrors would
have no useful purpose so something will need to be worked out. I'm not sure
what to do about this at the moment, and am open to suggestions.

Please note that it would be ideal if you could mirror it on a site capable
of having a /ada/ directory, but obviously that is not essential and I will
use filenames that are carefully selected to avoid clashes with someones
site should they only be allowed one directory.

Please let me know when you email me which town (or area) and country the
web server is in, what your email address is, what your name is, what the
name of the server is and obviously the URL of the directory or homepage
file you will be using.
Please note that due to the way I will be sending these things, your email
address will be known to everyone else who has a mirror. For the majority of
people this won't matter, but tell you just in case.

I will send out a test email soon to all of the mirror people I have to see
if it is working, so if you email me requesting to be added and you don't
get a reply or the test email, let me know somehow.

It would also be handy if you could let me know if you are unable to support
long filenames (ie DOS users with xxxxxxxx.xxx filenames)... it will be a
pain but I will try to accommodate you.

OK, enough rabbit.
