   I am interested in software of GNU. But I have a tiny problem:
   Here from Europe I can not use the anonymous FTP to get any files.
   I am just able to send and receive mail (eg. by BITNET).
   Can anybody give me some help or hint ?

   Thank you in advance

There is no BITNET repository to the best of my knowledge.

EUUG maight have some GNU software on tape.

See the United Kingdom info below from etc/FTP in the GNU Emacs
distribution,
