Kind of a waste, the current Rainbow on Tape / Disk project is ~ 16 MB and that includes some propaganda to make finding files more quickly and to dramatize that many issues are missing in an attempt to get more Rainbow on Tape / Disk offered to get closer to having the impossible of all issues. 

A CD can hold up to ~ 700 MB!

(Buried under snow below freezing temperatures may hurt the effort.)

I have spent my time today eliminating the second set of OS-9 sides, just June 91 needed to be copied from the second OS-9 set to the first.

> When burning to a cd in data format, it is usually pretty standard and should be readable on most OSs unless you specify a Target such as Mac or PC only. Toast on the Mac let's me choose, but I always select PC and Mac so it's readable on both. I'd expect Linux to be able to read that but have not tested that.
