I don't know why I didn't write this bot sooner.  I'm really kicking
myself for not doing that.  Anyway, once it gets its crawling done,
I'll get it online in some fashion.

I don't think an archive of the UMN master server exists (though see
the archive.org link I posted recently.)  I don't think it really had
many documents on its own, more links to other sites.

However, an archive of the UMN gopher software site does exist, at:

gopher://gopher.quux.org/1Archives/mirrors/boombox.micro.umn.edu/pub/gopher

That was mostly a FTP site but I think they had a few .Links and
stuff in there.

There is also gopher://quux.org/1Archives/mirrors/wiretap.area.com,
which is a mirror of what was once a fairly large gopher server, now
defunct.
