This project is moving to sourceforge, in order to speed up
access to the software and
to allow people aside from me to manage the web site.
New release this weekend. |
01/11/99 |
New snapshots at the http link. Old packages are still available under
the "old" directory. A mopd, this time including the loop.c fix, has been
put up as well. Whilst I'm away patches and new releases can be found on
Kenn's site at www.bluetree.ie |

All the vaxes have arrived. The only problem now is that as a result of
moving jobs and house, they are all in storage.
-
The mailing list has moved. The new details are below.
-
If you were on the old linux-vax list, you will have to re-subscribe, as
the list of members was not saved.
-
I am about to depart to a desert island (with no internet access) for several
months. I'll try to update documentation and the web site before I go.
-
Simplified web pages a bit. Amazing how being on a DECstation running NetBSD
with a 33.6 dialup instead of a T1 can lead to a lack of patience with
useless graphics.

New snapshots for things at the download link.
Linux C code now compiles. Pretty much all of arch-dependent stuff
to do
(or redo) still. I'm acquiring the rest of the VAX hardware I need
tomorrow.
Still dont know where to store it ... |

There is a hypermail mailing list archive

If you were a member of the old list at resserv, you will need to

Software Snapshots I'm not bothering to keep
this up to date as the server access patterns show that people aren't using
it as much as the http link.

Software Snapshots
Grab the latest crossdevelopment
