Apparently WRI now has a gopher server for Mathematica stuff (see below). 
I'm curious... how many people out there in MSUG-land use internet-surfing
tools like gopher, mosaic, etc.?  Once in a blue moon I wonder if it would be
worth setting up an MSUG gopher or web server (particularly if I could find
MIT'ers foolish enough to volunteer to help with the effort).  :-)

If you point your gopher to 

gopher.wri.com			Port 70

then the "About this Gopher" has the message:

Welcome to the MathSource Gopher Server.

This site allows access to the MathSource collection of Mathematica
notebooks, packages, documentation, examples, and more.  The physical
location of this site is Champaign, Illinois, USA.

We are currently reorganizing the collection to make it easier to
locate the items you may be interested in.  We apologize for the
inconvenience, and ask you to bear with us until approximately
January 14.

Thank you for your interest in MathSource.  If you have any questions
or comments, please contact
