The limit for a single file to be uploaded to a Yahoo! Group is 5 Mb.
But we only have approximately 2 Mb left in the Files section here
(I suspect it won't be long before I will have to cull the files
that are available elsewhere).

If the definitive JSW-MC.zip is significantly less than 2 Mb, which
I suspect, then I've no idea what's wrong - probably a bug in Yahoo!
Groups.

I'd be happy to host the definitive JSW-MC.zip on my personal
website until it is available for download elsewhere. I have 2.1 Mb
free on my website, so if you would like me to host it, please send
the file to my personal email-address.

P.S. It's great to hear new 128K JSW-tunes! :-)
