The next time there is a meeting at MLC (which WON'T be June 21), Mark
said
he doesn't have a problem with people bringing in their systems to stick
on their T1 to download stuff.
This brings me to a similar situation: Ben Pfaff was my ISO cd-image
supplier,
and now that he is currently off campus, I don't have access to my usual
DDS-based sneakernet. Is there anyone out there that has the ability to
download ISO images and can dump them on a tape for me? Debian potato
is
close to stable, and I would like to be able to burn some CD sets.
