This is really getting ridiculous. As many of you know, I've been dealing
with TP7xx development in Japan and the adminstrator of IBM's ftp site at
software.watson.ibm.com. The disks were supposedly mailed from Japan to the
U.S. several months ago (this is the only way software for the ftp site is
accepted for some reason). They're probably out of date now. Does anyone
have any contacts further up at IBM so we can get some action?
Perhaps if someone can get some postal addresses, we can start a letter
writing campaign? Or maybe we can set up an unauthorized ftp site and when
someone at IBM complains we can route our protests through him?
