Hey everybody--

RIT's sysadmins have figured out that I graduated, and are therefore
disposign of my accounts on the 26th of January (or so they claim--I have
seen web pages which are still usable a few years after their owners were
last at RIT, so I may still get lucky).

This means that (a) I probably won't be active in this newsgroup for a
spell, and (b) my MacMinix web site will probably be unavailiable.  I do
plan to, sooner or later, get an account at an ISP and rejoin the virutal
world, but it will probably take awhile.  In the meantime, if you want to
get the MacMinix SCSI patch, or the (nasty hack of an) a.out to Motorola
S-record converter, or the rather incomplete set of man pages to provide
something beyond the void the MacMinix distribution has, you ought to
download them ASAP.  I'll be away at a conference starting on Friday, the
19th, and won't be able to answer any questions or such after that.

(The URL is http://www.rit.edu/~aje9383/minix/ ).

I realize the MacMinix community is nearly non-existant, what with MacMinix
only working on really old Macintosh systems.  Still, if you have an old mac
which you'd rather not make an aquarium out of, it may be your answer.
