Hello Nick. I'm the guy who's trying to get IBM to put the ThinkPad utilites (system utilities, audio & video drives, bios updates, etc.) on software.watson.ibm.com. You told me the people who developed it at IBM had to contact you directly. I managed to track down some folks on IBM's TP750 development and told them to contact you. Here's what they sent back: ------------------------------ From: Ken Inoue <kensan@vnet.ibm.com> Tue, 26 Apr 94 13:09:53 JST To: John Kim <jokim@jarthur.cs.hmc.edu> Subject: Who at IBM is in charge of TP750 stuff? John, My apologies for the delay in responding to you. I have been waiting for news on the IBM Internet FTP site. To cut a long story short, we (ThinkPad development) can authorize the FTP site coordinator to make the drivers package available to public, *IF* she/he agrees. The Watson FTP site coordinator hasn't returned our calls... if you know her/his Internet ID you may want to try alerting the coordinator to the situation. ------------------------------ So the ball's in your court. I can imagine how busy you must be to not have had a chance to return their calls, but I'd like to reiterate that *many* people (over 100 on our TP750 mailing list alone) are very interested in being able to get software updates via ftp. Thanks for your time and effort (both you and Ken). -- John H.
