They're available for anonymous ftp in the src/netimpl/UUCP directory on bu.edu -- uucp-proto* document the g protocol (also available from ftp.cs.toronto.edu as doc/uucp-proto*) Another good document on the g protocol is "UUCP G protocol" by Jamie E. Hanrahan, Session UNO47, Fall 1990 DECUS Symposium, Las Vegas, Nevada. An electronic copy *may* be somewhere in the src/netimpl/UUCP/DECUS tree on bu.edu -- I haven't checked. dcp.tar.Z is the oldest uucico clone there, I think uupc is derived from it. uuslave-hoptoad is John Gilmore's uucico clone, gnuuucp is a more recent/complete version. (it hasn't changed since Apr 1989 and isn't the latest version. John Gilmore says it isn't in a released state, just a snapshot of his working src). DECUS/ contains the DECUS (VMS) UUCP (VMSNET). A more recent uupc is on sun.soe.clarkson.edu in pub/uupc. fsuucp is MSDOS shareware. A more recent fsuucp can be found on polyslo.calpoly.edu:/pub/fsuu*.zip.
