rusen135.zip is pretty large: 246550.  Bitnet has a limit of 300000
for file transfers, and although rusen135.zip falls below that limit
it would still tend to slow down the works a bit if many people
decided to get it over Bitnet.  For those people who wanted to get it
over the Internet (i.e. using e-mail), they would have to be using a
MIME-compliant mailer or request that it be sent in uuencoded format
(since it's a binary file).  My contention is that anyone savvy enough
to request a file from LISTSERV in MIME format or to uudecode an
encoded file would have no trouble simply ftp'ing the file from one
of the mirror sites.

In other words...  I don't prefer.  :)   We're kind of strapped for
disk space at this point anyway.  Sorry.  Nice idea, though.
