My first try didn't seem to make it; sorry for the repost.
======================================================================
This message announces the availability of JACAL release jacal1a0.

JACAL is a symbolic mathematics system for the simplification and
manipulation of equations and single and multiple valued algebraic
expressions constructed of numbers, variables, radicals, and algebraic
functions, differential, and holonomic functions.  In addition,
vectors and matrices of the above objects are included.

JACAL is written in Scheme.  A version of Scheme (IEEE P1178 and R4RS
compliant) written in C is available with JACAL.  SCM runs on Amiga,
Atari-ST, MacOS, MS-DOS, OS/2, NOS/VE, VMS, Unix and similar systems.

JACAL source is available via FTP (detailed instructions follow) from:
altdorf.ai.mit.edu:archive/scm/jacal1a0.tar.Z (or later revision).

SLIB is a portable scheme library which JACAL requires:
altdorf.ai.mit.edu:archive/scm/slib1c3.tar.Z

SCM is a small Scheme implementation under which JACAL will run.
altdorf.ai.mit.edu:archive/scm/scm4a15.tar.Z

  ftp altdorf.ai.mit.edu [18.43.0.246] (anonymous)
  bin
  cd archive/scm
  get jacal1a0.tar.Z
  get slib1c3.tar.Z
  get scm4a15.tar.Z

`jacal1a0.tar.Z' is a compressed tar file of the JACAL Scheme code.
`slib1c3.tar.Z' is a compressed tar file of a Scheme Library.
`scm4a15.tar.Z' is a compressed tar file of the C code distribution.
