Phil,
please accept the fact that the m68k people can't fix anything on the FTP
servers, including broken symlinks (and please accept my explanation that
changing the current symlink to 0606 isn't even near enough). The FTP team
needs to apply the fixes I outlined in my previous mail, that's all.
In conclusion: I can't fix the FTP archive, and I refuse to do anything
more on this matter. I've uploaded boot-floppies updates twice already
(the first set from mid-April made it into disks-m68k/<whatsitsname-0606>
in June, the second from last month just got installed but is incomplete).
I share your experience about the boot-floppies brokenness, but I for my
part are more annoyed about the tone of discussion, and about the
procedural hurdles, than about the occasional messup.
This is my last word on this matter, and on m68k boot-floppies in general.
Thank you.
Michael
