Various Collections – September 1992
In September of 1992, Jones wrote an email appraising the state of the 
SunSITE collections:
“Our student Jonathan Magid has done a bang up job of gathering "good stuff" at SunSITE and we're getting over 200 ftp 
sessions per day during the week and about 120-150 per day on the weekends. Thanks to Jon we have an incredible 
collection of sounds and we should have the Smithsonian photo archives in gif format by Educom (or shortly after). We've

also gotten a couple of folks to moderate their special interest areas in 
neural nets, sustainable agriculture, and

[Those were my archives of messages in my FidoNet sustainable agriculture discussion forum, SUST_AG. This permaculture 
list began at just about the same time, first on an Extension server at NCSU then moved to UNC then to ibiblio. The PC 
list archives were browseable on the mail server and readable and downloadable by FTP and Gopher. There were renewable 
energy info archives online also - digital copies of articles from Home Power Magazine]. Good times were had by all.

model rockets--not the hottest topics but a good way for us to learn how to 
distribute authority.
We also continue to WAIS index and archive all the Sun realted news groups as well as the Clinton and Bush speeches. We 
are getting about 300-400 WAIS searches per week day so far. We've also played a bit with the WAIS-FTP indexing and it 
works just fine. We need more and better readmes in place for that to work just right and I've hired another student to 
help out in that area.” 14
