He's not free to release the contents of the backup set, unfortunately, but he sent me a file listing. I'd been assuming the Walnut Creek CD's cpm/ directory was the MIT-MC archives, but there are significant differences.

Anyone know what unit the file sizes in the MIT-MC listings are? E.g. "CMODEM 13C" has a size of "2980" in the MIT-MC listings, but 14331 bytes in the OAK archives.

I assume MIT-MC isn't reporting bytes.
