Yes, this is true. However, they are second-source archives, and as such, are in no way official. Secondly, they only go back a finite period of time (although with the way the UIUC archive had been behaving, it has turned out to be even worse). Thirdly, and this turns out to be most important to me, there is no way to down-load the archive in its entirety--both of these resources (Thank God we at least have them!) allow you only to browse submission using their facilities, you must remain Internet connected to them to browse submissions.
~sigh~
