*Lots and lots* of people have been calling Karl and me and sending us
mail asking us whether and when g++ and gdb+ will be available on
osu-cis for UUCP access.

Through the benevolence of various machines around here that have been
graciously deciding to go down or act flaky this week, just to prove
to our Department that the facilities staff is really necessary and
should therefore continue to be employed here (:-), we have thus far
been unable to FTP the files from prep so that we can make them
available to the rest of the world via UUCP.

As soon as we can, the latest g++ and gdb+ will be placed on osu-cis
and an announcement will be posted to comp.sources.d.  This may happen
tomorrow or over the weekend, if our network cooperates.  Until then,
please be patient - we're trying!
