| 20, and a number of smaller repo- |
| sitories, this remains the greatest |
| collection of public domain CP/M |

| its premiere software repositories, |
| and was the on-line home of the |
| SIG/M collection and the Info-CPM |
| mailing list. Later MIT-MC was |
| mirrored by OAK and WU and is now |
| preserved in the CPM/ directory on |
| the Walnut Creek CD. |
