Does the mailing list reject mails with attachments?
I tried twice and it didn't work.
The next two mails are rather long ;-)

Hello!
More like they are trying to off-load VMS to a part of HP that is
completely clueless towards its importance. Every time the local
user's group meets here, there is an enthusiastic presence from HP
here, so perhaps the support end is resembling garbage.
Yes, we should maintain these patches on an accessible system within
this network of ours.

If you can put them on an FTP server, I can host them on RHESUS for HECNET users..
Alas, I don't have an FTP server set up.
I see from subsequent messages on the list, though, that others probably have better personal repositories than I anyway. :-)

Hi all,
it seems that hp has killed the patch-site.
Has anybody mirrored them before the death?
I have found a friend who has copies of everything up to the point where
hp killed the patch-site.
Give me a day or two and I'll get them somewhere for you all.

Sure, please find attached.

Hi Saku,
I have all the VMS patches which were available at the HP site until October 2010. I can put them on a CD and drop them to you if you want.
If anyone else is interested, please drop me a note.

I ll let you know what patches I have stored on my systems for VAX/VMS and AXP/VMS.
Just before HP locked up the patch site I did rescue a few patches.
Shortly thereafter VMS support was moved to India and the quality of the patches suffered considerably. A.k.a. the learning curve I guess.
My systems have more than enough storage, the problem is the electricity bill to keep them running 24/7 and the heat they produce.

Hi Sampsa, I've managed to secure patch database access for a year ;) Am happy to provide patches for you to host on the understanding that they go no further than the hecnet community. Mark.
