I would be interested in distributing some of my papers too.
Should I contact with the ACM Publications Department before
making them freely available?

I would be glad to make available a paper I published in an ACM SIGCOMM
conference in April 2001.  It was my first paper.  I got very
good memories from SIGCOMM.  They helped me when I had serious
financial challenges (my Department never supported my research,
it is a long history) to participate in that conference.  I certainly
would like to make that paper available at
http://web1.forteisp.net/~sobrado/ if possible.

In the last years, I got financial support from the Department
of Mathematics.  I am really grateful to them!  In two months
I will finish my PhD studies.  I certainly do not know what
comes now.  I hope not dropping the research world but, to be
honest, I do not believe I have a lot of opportunities in Spain
and a postdoctoral position will be something difficult to achieve.

Cheers,
Igor.
