The lists are fetched to Garbo by an automatic script once a week. The current situation is listed below. One comment. I am discontinuing of trying to get updates of the Coast to Coast lists. It would seem that in these days it is almost impossible to get material from Coast to Coast as you can see by looking at the dates of the file lists.

It is now 30498 Oct 18 1997 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/link/moder.zip moder.zip A list of MS-DOS FTP sites and moderators, T.Salmi or with the version number ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/pd2/moder62.zip A general note. The maintenance of this list is discontinued. This is the last update of the list. There are several reasons for the abandoning: 1) In these days the WWW search engines can locate sites and files for you. The list is not needed as much as previously. 2) With a few exceptions (such as Garbo and Simtel.Net) program distribution is getting more decentralized to authors' own sites. 3) ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/doc-net/ftp-list.zip is more extensive. 4) I have lately not been able to allocate sufficient time to maintain this list as carefully as I would liked. I do not foresee that to change in the future. The copyright (c) of this list stays with the author, Prof. Timo Salmi. It is not released by the discontinuance of the maintenance.

The section is at it best when using http://garbo.uwasa.fi/Astro.html. Even if it is in a way entertaining, because I have tried to keep also visuality in mind when selecting the images, this material serves a very serious purpose. It tries to lure people to get interested in science. We are a remote university and along making ourselves known the underlying goal of Garbo is the enhancement of skills, rational knowledge and scientific thinking. The astronomy related gifs can make people think of these matters and to realize that we live on a planet with limited resources. They hopefully make users better appreciate the global nature of society, and sadly the fact that in the end the unheeded population growth can and will put an end to the modern culture on our only Earth. I have obtained the following additions to the collection. : 57857 Oct 15 13:55 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/gifjupit/jupovals.jpg jupovals.jpg Long-lived white ovals on Jupiter, like art, Galileo : 38625 Oct 15 14:06 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/gifjupit/jupnorth.jpg jupnorth.jpg Northern hemisphere of Jupiter, like art, Galileo : 110702 Oct 15 13:44 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/gifjovmn/pwyll.jpg pwyll.jpg Pwyll crater on Europa, Galileo, 19-Dec-96 : 26362 Oct 15 14:27 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/gifjovmn/iotopog.jpg iotopog.jpg Topography of Jovian moon Io, Galileo, 27-Jun-97 : 7625 Oct 15 14:38 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/gifjovmn/iovolcan.jpg iovolcan.jpg Active volcanic plumes on Io, Galileo, 28-Jun-98 : 32688 Oct 15 14:30 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/gifcraft/cassini1.gif cassini1.gif A drawing of the Cassini craft bound for Saturn : 21783 Oct 15 14:31 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/gifcraft/probe.jpg probe.jpg A drawing of the Huygens proble bound for Titan : 108652 Oct 15 14:41 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/gifnebul/pistol.gif pistol.gif Pistol Nebula and Massive Star, Hubble Fri 10-Oct-97: Acquired the update 144763 Aug 30 00:43 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/arcutil/av708.zip av708.zip Archive view: Free ZIP etc directory viewer, B.Guthrie Fri 10-Oct-97: I somewhat hesitated before accepting this collection to Garbo since the documentation and what is included in the package do not tally. 219360 Oct 4 20:38 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/miscutil/mu1097.zip mu1097.zip A collection of utilities, Bert Greevenbosch Fri 10-Oct-97: Got from the author and made available for Garbo program archive's users 5812 Oct 8 23:50 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/sysutil/krti101.zip krti101.zip Calibrate the system clock, Kristofer Tingdahl Tue 7-Oct-97: Acquired to garbo archives the update 629106 Sep 26 1997 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/windows/arcers/wz16v63.zip wz16v63.zip WinZip for Win 3.1 w/Built-in ZIP, TAR, gzip, compress Fri 3-Oct-97: An addition to Garbo's astronomy images collection 118004 Oct 3 21:06 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/gifjupit/pia00702.jpg pia00702.jpg Impact scar on Jovian moon Europa by Galileo, 4-Apr-97 Fri 3-Oct-97: Obtained to Garbo's collection of net related information 219009 Dec 8 1996 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/doc-net/acvfaqht.zip acvfaqht.zip Newsgroup alt.comp.virus FAQ hypertext, D.Harley Fri 3-Oct-97: Obtained to Garbo arhive's collection fo batch programming material 98165 Feb 10 1997 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/batchutil/batchbk.zip batchbk.zip The batch book with HTML by Ted Davis Fri 3-Oct-97: Acquired the following nice small educational games with source codes to the object oriented section of Garbo archive's Turbo Pascal section 42027 Dec 21 1996 ftp://garbo.uwasa.fi/pc/turboobj/musicv11.zip musicv11.zip Music Vision memory game + TP source, J.R.
