Send me mail and I'll setup a place you can drop them off.  I don't want to open something to the entire public though.

Later,
Brad

PS same goes for anyone having trouble mailing them to Walter

You might consider a free backup site like: http://www.omnidrive.com/

Not via a post to the newsgroup / mailing list.  Try using my email address, ie the 'from' not the 'reply-to'.  I'd have sent this direct to you rather than the newgroup, except your 'from' address is bogus.

Later,
Brad

dmdalpha5.zip
dmdalpha6.zip
dmdalpha8 .. 18.zip
dmd20 .. 75.zip
dmd77
dmd78
dmd83
dmd84
dmd85
dmd87

Thanks to all who have been emailing them!

Woops, I meant to post directly to you.  Anyway I've managed to send the files now so I don't need this now.

It looks like dmdalpha5 and 6 might never have been publicly released. From the news archives here:

	http://www.digitalmars.com/d/archives/index2001.html

dmdalpha4 was released on dec 23 2001, and the next one announced was dmdalpha7 on the 28th.  There might have been one sent to specific people, possibly Pavel Minayev who looks like the primary (though not only) user at the time.

I'll have a changelog file for all the releases later today for the zip files to be linked from.

Later,
Brad

I realized that's true of some of the other gaps, too.
