NOAO FTP Archives (1Mar94)
(from CCS, NOAO Newsletter No. 37, 1 March 1994)

We have decided to consolidate the listings of the FTP archives that
are available at NOAO.  In previous issues of the Newsletter these
listings were in the division sections, but some felt that this was too
confusing.  So we are trying a new format.

A summary of the archives is listed below.  When an alternate address
is available it is given in parentheses.  See the README or equivalent
files in the directories for more information about specific archives.
This listing also reflects the new general address, ftp.noao.edu (with
directories mounted read only), where appropriate (see the accompanying
article in this section of the Newsletter for more on the NOAO/Tucson
FTP archives).
