Yes, DECUServe is mostly text, and 768K is more than enough
to keep a lot of people happy.  However, it's also the home
to some of the Library collections and other files.  I don't
know how often anyone accesses them and downloads them.

Speaking for myself, I think it wouldn't take much bandwidth
to keep DECUServe running.  I'm not in a position to host it
now, but I'll help with whatever I can.
