Re: [PSUBS-MAILIST] list policy

Hi Sean,

With the 40k character limit on the list email size. The only two options
I see are:

1. For me to put them up on the web. I can handle 2MB size files.
   The only problem is time. It takes me from hours to weeks to get 
   some stuff up on the web site. This is where I would like to see the
   final product end up.

2. Another option would be to say to the list, "Hey, I have this DXF 
   file. Who wants it?" Then you send it directly to those people. 
   That would avoid the list size limit.

Regards,
Ray

Large assemblies (such as complete subs) would be too large for e-mail 
attachment, but for simple solids, such as the

is difficult to get across with words alone.
