Something that might be considered is to start the "Don Maslin Bootdisk
Software Archive" since this might be a way of addressing the needs of
everyone. Perhaps Winnie also needs to understand that *many* people
have contributed to the archive and it is *very* unlikely that Don would
have wanted "his" archive to become unavailble to the community he
supported.
