Thanks, I installed the upper sorbian hyphenations patterns in
tex-archive/language/hyphenation/sorhyph.tex.  I renamed the file because
all files in this directory have names like <language>hyph.tex

Thanks for the upload.  I have in fact installed your stuff in
support/glosstex/binaries/os2 (which offers the remote possibility of
someone creating some other set of binaries...)

It will propagate to the other CTAN sites and mirrors in due course.

Thanks for the submission.  I installed the new file as suggested and
removed the old dvips versions in /tex-archive/systems/msdos/dviware/dvips
and /tex-archive/systems/os2/drivers.

[ For the sake of consistency, /tex-archive/systems/os2/drivers/hp-deskjet
has been moved to /tex-archive/systems/os2/dviware/hp-deskjet too and
the old directory /tex-archive/systems/os2/drivers will soon be deleted. ]
