    You can skip the slow download/upload part if you have the right
tools on your UNIX box.  I always feed comp.binaries.apple2 postings
through sciibin using trn's pipe command.  The resulting files can then
be BinaryII-wrapped (using the proposed b2 utility) and FTP'ed directly
to grind.  It takes a few minutes a day to do this.  Since I already
download every cba2 file anyway, I could take care of this section if
someone writes the 'b2' utility.
