Were you trying a...@bitsavers.org?  That's the address I've used to
correspond with Al when I uploaded a bunch of Univac and Honeywell
manuals.  I've done a lot of scanning and he gave me access to his
FTP server to upload them.  Haven't had time to do more for a while,
though - my last e-mail is from October 2016.

I've been in touch with John about the manuals today.

Many baby boomers are now retiring and they might have manuals
or brochures in their possession.  Perhaps bitsavers could
include a contact postal mail or email for people interesting
in donating material.

My email address is at the bottom of the home page.

Ok, thanks.  But I also saw that there is long backlog
of stuff.

The stuff I was asking about has been sitting in my closet for at
least 25 years so a few more months hardly matters.

I suspect that if people would like bitsavers to be updated
more promptly, contributions of time and money to the CHM
would be a good start.
