Loren has been working with others to help get the RQ-Rules Digest
back up at another site. I haven't heard any recent word, but I know
new listserver software is involved, so it might take a bit. I think
the key phrase is: it will be back... soonish.

There were originally IBM versions of those fonts. I had them on
ftp.csua for years, but (1) the /pub/runequest files got recently
deleted due to a blundered upgrade -and- (2) ftp.csua is nearly
useless for access anyways. I'm going to be reconstituting as much of
the archives as I can when ftp.chaosium.com comes up, January-ish
(fingers crossed), but I don't know of any alternative places
currently.
