I have just finished a new X11R5/GNU CD-ROM. It has the entire X11R5
source distribution at patchlevel seventeen, the X11 contrib source, and
all the latest GNU source code. It also has Sparc binaries for X11R5 and
the GNU programs. There is a total of 632 MB.
The disc is in Rock Ridge format, so if you are running SunOS 4.1.2 or
later you will see full Unix pathnames instead of the 8+3 ISO-9660 names.
If your system doesn't support the Rock Ridge extensions, a program is
provided on the disc to translate the names.
The readme and index files from this disc are available via anonymous
ftp from cdrom.com:/pub/cdroms/x11_gnu.
This disc is available for FREE to anyone who has contributed any of
their own work to either GNU or X11. Just email me your name, address,
and the name of the program(s) that you wrote. Overseas addresses are ok.
If you are not a contributing author, the price is $40. If you bought
either of the first two editions of this disc, you can get this disc for
$20. S&H is $5 for US/Canada/Mexico, and $10 for overseas. If you live
in California, please add sales tax. You can pay by check, money order,
Visa/MC/Amex, gold bullion, small unmarked bills, etc.
