RE: The future of the CBM and CP/M file archives at FUNET

Hello Ruud,

Well, I parked the following subdomains, which should be activated in the
next few days:
http://archives.zimmers.net
http://cpm.zimmers.net

However, those are just redirections to the longer URL, similar to the way
http://gallery.zimmers.net redirects to http://www.zimmers.net/cbmpics right
now.

As for what they will be called. Hmm.. I've been calling them the FUNET
archives still, but that may not be appropriate. :)  In the past, when I
have made CDs of the archives, I have called them my "CommieNet" CDs,
similar to "AmiNet".  

Do you have a suggestion?  

- Bo
