Chip I appreciate what you do, but I do think you have lost a few fans of your archive through not providing updates! I have for one have stopped even looking at it now because of this, nobody wants to keep downloading the whole collection every time you update it?

@chip, be a nice guy now and upload only updates, you are wasting our weekly download quota by having a huge archive of ADA. For people that still use a landline and not fiber cabel it will take many hours to download a file on 4-5 GB. Please listen to the community here.

I usually didn't touch the work done

I mean when releases are inserted in the archive, i leave them as they are

But this time i made an exception

Indeed in ADA there are together with EXE and ADF files also some ZIP files

These archives, when the size permits it, can be converted to ADF

ADF are more practical than ZIP files IMHO

So, i located more than 100 ZIP releases which can be converted to disks images

And i started the job

I guess in 3-4 days these archives will be replaced by corresponding disks images

I know, it's not a major change, just a little touch

Cheers, chip

Thanks chip for the new version. In your uploads folder it shows the archive is 2.6Gb in size, is 4.4GB the uncompressed size?
