Here are the latest gopher file transfer statistics for my Ecology and
Evolution archive on sunsite.unc.edu. Monthly traffic increased 4-fold in
September and October, compared to July and August. Files were retrieved
by people in at least 32 countries. These data are for gopher FTP transfers
only; additional transfers via regular anonymous FTP and e-mail are not
included.
Statistics were generated from traffic logs by the sunsite.unc.edu support
staff, who have very generously provided disk space, computer cycles and
their own time to support this public Internet service, even though I have
no other affiliation with UNC Chapel Hill.

I am very interested in supporting the transfer of scientific information
to and from less developed countries, so I am particularly pleased to see
this diversity of usage increase. Toward that end, sunsite.unc.edu supports
every major mode of access to its archives, including file transfers via
e-mail. I only wish I had more to offer in the archive; contributions of
field station descriptions and contact addresses, and educational software
and comparative ecological datasets would be very welcome.
To get to the archive, gopher to sunsite.unc.edu, and choose this sequence
of menu items:
Sunsite Archives
Ecology and Evolution
Or, from any gopher offering other biology gophers by topic, look for the
menu item "Ecology and Evolution [at UNC and Yale]". You can also use
anonymous FTP to sunsite.unc.edu, where the Ecology and Evolution archive is:
/pub/academic/biology/ecology+evolution
You can telnet to sunsite.unc.edu and login with the username "swais" for
WAIS searching or "gopher" for plain gopher access. There is also an e-mail
server for those people who have only e-mail access to the Internet. For
more information, send e-mail to info at sunsite.unc.edu.
Enjoy!
