X2 operates within the University of Oulu, Department of Electrical Engineering, which also has kindly provided us with most of the equipment. Members of X2 are students specializing in one of the branches lectured in Dept. of EE, namely Electrical Engineering and Computer Engineering.
All work is done on voluntary basis and carried out according to each one's resources available.
The main guideline of X2 Support Group is to promote development of high quality software and to gather and make available information related to the various phases of the software development and life. We wish to make our archives available for everybody as widely as possible, but we also have to make sure the archive is handled according to our high standards.
All material herein have been carefully selected to aid a programmer to create something new. We have preferred documents and source code over typical binary distributions to avoid becoming yet another PD/Shareware museum.
X2 provides one of the leading FTP sites specialized in MS-DOS programming. Alternatively, the collection will be made available on CD-ROM every 6 to 12 months.
In addition, there are quite active areas for the Amiga, game consoles, as well a few other systems on the X2FTP collection.
