Yup this is indeed the case. Though we did have trouble with the FTP site a 
while back. I'd thought I'd seen to it and it was working. I haven't had 
the chance to get there and take a look at the moment. Too many balls in 
the air. And you know how painful that can be.

The reason the convention was started was that warez kiddies use to use any 
open incoming directory as a drop zone. It use to be that if you knew the 
file names that were in there, you could retrieve them. This was handy but 
the warez kiddies soon caught onto that one too so now all you can do is 
upload into an incoming. But! You should be able to poke round the rest of 
the directories. Of which you can only extract stuff from rather than put 
stuff in.

You have to let me know that something is up there and then I can shift it 
into an appropriate directory for the consumption of others. As it were.

You'll probably note that I haven't actually updated much on my actual web 
site since about 2005 or so. I was thinking I should do something about 
that but I can't find a friendly WYSIWYG HTML editor for linux. So if 
anyone has any suggestions. I mean by friendly, one that will actually 
install under slackware. But having said that, I tend to use the FTP more 
than anything these days and having the web site just allows me to have 
this wicked email system running.

Anyway, that's the story and I'm thinking of optioning it out to Hollywood.

Hope this helps.

Be absolutely Icebox.
