I've bee looking on expo.lcs.mit.edu for the xview sources, but they don't seem to be there. We have copies of them, but they weren't ftp'd in binary mode, so they can't be uncompressed. The originals don't seem to be on expo anymore, though they are listed in the 'ls-lR.Z' file. Can anyone out there from SUN give me a clue? Mike Maciukenas mooch@origin.life.uiuc.edu

Perhaps when a new version of some contributed stuff is being constructed, instead of just removing the old version while it's being constructed (which I assume is done so that nobody grabs the old version) with nothing left behind, the moral equivalent of an "Under Construction" sign should be left behind, so that we don't have people asking "what happened to the Mumblefrotz sources?" (Or was that already done? If so, perhaps the "sign" wasn't sufficiently obvious?)
