  If you have any additions/corrections to this list please send 
them to one of the following:

             Internet -- healyzh@holonet.net

 It is my understanding that if you have access to a BBS on 
FidoNet that if you can talk the SysOp into it he can get the 
Linux Files via Fidonet Linux SDN. Contact Greg Naber at S'Qually
Holler BBS (or Fido netmail to Greg Naber at 1:343/200). 

Note:
 If you have a mailer, you can Freq LINUX from 1:343/34 or 
1:152/35 and get a list of the Linux files available at those 
sites.  Also F'Req LINUX.FRQ from 1:377/42, aka 813-689-1150.
