OK, Marc, do you have a preferred layout for where various kinds of
binaries or other distribution packages should go?

Right now there is:

bindist - Solaris v6.3 binaries
non-unix/os2 - OS2 v6.3 client-side binaries
odbc - win32 odbc source and binaries

Magnus is building some WIN32 client-side binaries and needs a place to
put them.

So I just created:
doc - tar files of daily builds of current html documentation
.incoming - world-writable file dropoff

I have no write privileges in /pub/non-unix, so could not add a win32
directory. Also, I noticed that there are still some ".old" directories
in /home/projects/pgsql/ftp/www/html/docs, which I had renamed a long
time ago since I did not have delete privileges for the original
directories and files but was able to rename them. These should be
deleted.

Anyway, let me know what you would prefer, and if you want me to set it
up perhaps you can chmod/chown the ftp and html/docs directories to
allow me to make the changes.

TIA
