Where can I get stuff?

   Reading the latest Tugboat, I saw the UnixTeX site report.  Several
   things about tex and metafont were discussed.  A assumed (erroneously?)
   that all that stuff was available from june.cs.washington.edu via ftp.  
   Is this not true?  I went to june.cs.washington.edu, but couldn't 
   find anything dealing with metafont (which is specifically what I'm 
   after).   If that machine doesn't have that stuff, could someone 
   possibly point me in the right direction?  I'm looking for mf sources 
   (especially the base files plain.mf and cmbase.mf), other mf sources, 
   MFware stuff, plain and lplain macro files, and other standard latex 
   macros not included in the rochester latex-style collection.  We have
   most of the above, but it is old, and some of it doesn't even work (for
   instance, the plain.mf won't work with our current metafont).

   Thanks for any help.
