Alternate Viewing Sites

Links to our mirror sites

Our principal mirror site, and the easiest one to remember, is "www2", at Clemson University. So, if you have any difficulty reaching the main URL of the Journal, then try http://www2.combinatorics.org as your first alternate. Then try the Australian National University in Canberra, Australia.

Furthermore, the European Mathematical Information Service (EMIS) mirrors this Journal, as do all of its mirror sites (over thirty of them).

Creating new mirror sites

This Journal welcomes the establishment of new mirror sites. If you would like to create a mirror site at your home system, we will help you in every way we can. The creation of the mirror sites that we now have owes a great deal to Leo Novik, of the Weizmann Institute, Israel. He has written a Perl script that automates almost all of the routine tasks. When invoked, it will go to the master site and then, recursively in all of the directories there, it will check the date stamp on each file. For each file that is more recent than the date of the last visit, the file will be taken to the mirroring site. Furthermore, when all such files have been taken, all internal references that they contain to directory paths in the master file site will be changed to the corresponding directory paths in the mirroring site. Leo Novik has generously made this Perl script available to us, so it can help not only those who wish to mirror this Journal, but all others with similar needs.

About mirror sites

The master copy of this Journal is at ftp.combinatorics.org. We try to keep the mirror sites identical with the master site, but the "official" copy of the Journal resides at ftp.combinatorics.org.
