[moderator's note: this should probably be posted to comp.windows.x.announce,
but people ask me for this info all the time...]
The recently released sources of X11r5 are available by anonymous
ftp from hpb.mcc.ac.uk [130.88.200.7], user name ftp or anonymous,
password your e-mail address.
Note that our internet is connected to the European mainland
vi the US, so that we are not closer to European sites than
US sites are. Note that access is only vi internet ftp: we
have not yet managed to acquire a working info-server for
Janet access. Also note that, because of continuing problems
with the configuration of our local nameservers, you may not always
be able to use the machine name, but you should be able to use
the address 130.88.200.7.
The files are in the directory pub/X11r5. They include all files
from the R5 directory at export.lcs.mit.edu, with the same
directory structure. They also include compressed tar files
into which the split files from MIT have been concatenated. This
is intended to simplify ftping the files. The following files
contain the entire release:

The directories mit-1, mit-2, mit-3, mit-4, and contrib-0 contain
the original files concatenated into the *.tar.Z files. The
release notes contain a brief description of the various tar files,
but a detailed list of the contents of each can be found in the
following files:
