[Oberon] [EXT] Re: Univ. Linz Oberon collection

[Robert Brewer]

Wojtek,

The Internet Archive is a pretty amazing service. Now that it knows the
URL, it should periodically snapshot it "forever". The archive retains the
snapshots, accessed by the original URL, regardless of whether the Linz
server ever goes offline.

You can try it by entering the Oberon.zip URL near the top of their home
page.

Lots of old software and websites that have long since gone offline can
still be accessed there. Often the trickiest part is finding a URL to do so.
