Hello!

	I've just gotten done adding about 15 or so files (they're the ones at
the bottom of this list... jb added the others) on this typical January 
Saturday in Michigan (muddy, rainy, foggy, wierd).... Most of these
files are updates of older versions, so you might want to look through
the list and see if there's a new version that might replace something
old on your hard drive!  There are updates for BBEdit, AutoDoubler, 
MacGhostScript and GateKeeper.  There are also a couple LPR/lpd utilities
in here (there's been quite a thread going through some UseNet newsgroups
about these.  I'm happy we can be one of the places where you can find these
goodies!).
  
	In a couple weeks, I hope to have excellent news concerning our 
currently very limited ftp service (so be patient).  Don't forget to use
AFS access instead of ftp if you have it, and our Gopher server never
has any limits -- just Gopher to the machine "gopher.uis.itd.umich.edu"
and look in the "Special Topics" section.  Both Sumex and our archives
can be found.  To get submissions to us, you can ftp the files (or "cp"
them via AFS) into our incoming directory, or you can e-mail the files
to "macgifts@mac.archive.umich.edu".  If you e-mail the files, they will
be automatically redistributed to the Info-Mac archives, Comp.Binaries.Mac,
and some other archives across the ocean (so please include some header text
describing what it is that you're mailing us).

	Thanks!  And have fun with our excellent archive!
