Yes, there will be a ShrinkIt version of the archive at some time - I
can't say when at the moment.

Yes, in the Mac version of XGS, a utility called "imageutil" is included
which can convert between formats of DiskCopy and 2image.  I believe this
utility is included with the original Windows build of XGS, but I can't
say for certain.

Also, anyone who has tried to view the archive within the last three days
might have met with errors and the page not loading.  This SHOULD be fixed
in the next couple of days - unfortunatly, its out of my hands.  I'll
notify you all on when it will be back up and running.  I'll also inform
you guys on when the ShrinkIt archive will be online.

LaTeR!
