-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
I have just uploaded the new version of the Linux Software Map (LSM),
dated 03FEB96, to sunsite.unc.edu. It will be moved to
<URL:ftp://sunsite.unc.edu/pub/Linux/docs/LSM.03FEB96> at some later
time. See the Incoming directory for now.
The LSM is a database of software that is available for Linux.
New entries are sent to the Son of the LSM Robot (a.k.a. Sonny),
at lsm@osf-alpha.cs.helsinki.fi. Sonny will instruct you, if you send
it mail.
For more information about the LSM, see
<URL:http://www.iki.fi/liw/linux/lsm.html>; this is the official LSM
home page. There are links there to WWW search engines for the LSM
(I expect the maintainers will update their copies of the database
in the near future).
NOTE THAT OLD METHODS OF SENDING ENTRIES NO LONGER WORK.
I no longer collect new entries from sunsite.unc.edu, nor do I accept
them by mail sent to me (unless Sonny is misbehaving). I'm sorry, but
it was way too much work, since it meant that I had to manually edit
just about every entry (Sonny won't accept an entry unless it is
syntactically correct).
(This change was announced in the beginning of December the previous time,
two months ago. Sunsite notes about it when you CD into Incoming. This
should be sufficient warning.)
Lars Wirzenius, liw@iki.fi, LSM maintainer.
PS.
Note that I mistakenly uploaded a version of the README dated
03JAN96; only the date is different, no other changes to the
03FEB96 version. The LSM file is currently also dated a month old.
Sorry about the hassle.
