I suppose what I'm asking is: If I back up Asimov, then have I also
successfully backed up all of the other archives out there?

Or is there a substantial collection of other stuff, elsewhere on the
internet, that Asimov doesn't mirror or parrallel in some way?

I would like to avoid duplication of effort but I also don't want to
miss an important trove somewhere!  :-)
