I find it extremely hard to find anything on the site with the "old" ftp area and the "new" area, and the others. Plus the search engine simply doesn't work. Why isn't it possible to change our passwords? (OR is it?) Although mine is easy to remember, I should be able to change it - perhaps through https. And why do we have an ftp area that is called an "ftp area" that can't be accessed through anonymous ftp? Might as not be there by default, since by default no one has anything to download. People can put their archives wherever they like in their public_html directory, can't they? I haven't uploaded my scanty pages yet, so I'm guessing. Toby.
