Offers to Host new IIgs archives...

[Alex Lee <alelee@mail.bigpond.com>]

Yes, sorry it's taken so long for everyone to hear any recent news on the
two new IIgs archives I've been working on.

But the server I had originally intended to have the new archive hosted from
has been delayed further and rather than waiting any more, I should see who
is happy to offer a server.

The complete archive of IIgs games (which would include the Fairway),
application software and educational software is just sitting under a CD-R's
worth (which includes 2image and ShrinkIt archives). Worst case scenario is
that there could be a gig downloaded each day, judging by the use the
Fairway had got before the admin had to cap the site.

The new archives NEED a message board. So the new server has to have a
message board that is easily customisable to fit in with the look and feel
I've given the new archives.

Also, the server needs to include FTP access (not only for updates from me)
but also where everyone else can help out with the archives by uploading
program archives, box scans, manuals, etc.

I know I've had lots of offers in the past to host the Fairway, but I
thought I'd request a home for the Fairway and the new archives from
scratch.

As soon as someone can offer what the archive requires, I'll airmail a CD-R
of the entire archive.

Thanks for everyone's patience waiting for this new IIgs archive. It WILL be
worth it, I promise!
