There are a few matters of upload ettiquette for the ftp site.
1. Upload stuff for cypherpunks to pub/cypherpunks/incoming/ and not
to the general pub/incoming/ directory. I'll be able to more
adequately handle files there. (I can't erase in the other directory.)
2. Whenever you upload something, also upload a short description of
what it is you are uploading. I've got a few mystery files there that
are on the low priority end of things, since I don't know what they
are and I've got plenty of other stuff to do with the archive.
3. Send me mail telling me what you've put up. I don't have any
automated software to look at the incoming directory, and so I may not
notice. My address is below.
4. Don't bother uploading programs that don't have source code. The
mission of the archive site is education. Software distribution is
not a purpose, and software without source does not satisfy the
educational criterion.
Thanks.
