Steve,
As long as we keep the links to ourselves I doubt HP will even notice.

My vote would be to put them online within HECnet.
I agree! Put the contents online (somehow) for us to view and use
when possible.
Okay, I'll do that then. I've copied the CDs to .iso files and now
need to get my Linux system to get a bit more room to hold them and
then once that's reconfigured, I'll mount them on DUSTY:: (and send
out a message when that's done to let everyone know where it is).
I will happily rip and host the CD images for HECnet
member use - I
run a data center, so I have plenty of bandwidth to spare.
I'll even
pay for shipping if required.
Thanks very much for the offer, Ian, but I've got a very decent
Internet connection here (all hail, Verizon FiOS :-) ), so once I
resize my Linux disk to hold these files, I'll be set.

Hello!
Marc for those of us who as yet do not have access via the
networking methods that you've worked out with the rest of
the group, can you set up access for normal methods? IE, via
FTP or even HTTP?

Marc,
We need to be careful about putting VMS kits in the public space. It's
one thing to make them available for HECnet users within HECnet but
another to put them accessible to the whole world. HP might (probably
will), take a very dim view of this. Let's not temp fate and give them
ammunition to shutdown the program.
