I just put the file "tans_cpm.zip" at http://www.classiccmp.org/rtellason ,  
let me know if there's anything specific in there that you want and we'll 
work it out from there.  Or if the file isn't accessible for some reason.  A 
lot of what I've got is from the old Simtel CP/M archives,  some of it 
cleaned up a bit and repackaged,  some other bits added from here and there.

I've had the idle thought lately of putting a bunch of what used to be in the 
bbs files sections online,  or at least portions of it,  but time is tight 
these days,  so it'll have to wait for a while,  though I don't mind passing 
files along to what folks want 'em.
