Can we have an explanation why an amply funded government archive effort can't accomplish what a host of university and corporate sites do everyday with far less money? Speaking of which, why isn't there a "comp.sources.ada" on USENET? Everyday, hundreds of megabytes of code in other languages are posted and downloaded from the nets with little work required? We all paid for all of this Ada code with our taxes - why can't we get it as easily as all of the other "comp.source.XXX" sources posted (many of which are very large files, so don't use that excuse).
