Alex is a filesystem that lets users access files in FTP sites around
the world just like they access local files. The name Alex comes from
the ancient Library of Alexandria. Alexandria gathered information from
around the world into one easy to access location. Alex does an analogous
thing in a very modern way.
Source to Alex is now available on alex.sp.cs.cmu.edu in the `src'
subdirectory.
