Well, it being July 1, I can announce that I have _most_ of the
new AMS stuff available for FTP. What is lacking is due to
technical problems on the AMS side (I'm checking at least twice a
day to be sure that I'm the first to get everything :-)

This is what I do have:
   AmSTeX 2.0         in [anonymous.tex.inputs.amstex] and 
                         [anonymous.tex.inputs.amstex.doc]
   AmSfonts 2.0:
    Cyrillic          in [anonymous.tex.babel.russian.fonts-uwash]
                         Yes, that's right, the new AMS Cyrillic
                         is simply the University of Washington 
                         Cyrillic.
    Euler             in [anonymous.tex.mf.ams.euler]
    ExtraCM           in [anonymous.tex.mf.ams.extracm]

Here's what I'm waiting on the AMS for:
   AmSfonts 2.0:
    Symbols           (the reimplementation of the msym and msxm
                       fonts)
   AmSLaTeX           (Among other things, amstex.sty to give the
                       much-needed math facilities to LaTeX and
                       LaTeX style files for AMS publications.)

Please note that these files may be moved around a bit on
ymir.claremont.edu before I'm satisfied with their organization.
Also, at present, I don't have a good set of TFMs or PKs on ymir
for these fonts (I'm waiting to get the symbols font before
starting the batch job to make the fonts).

Somebody tell me, did I only dream the existence of msyb and msxb
fonts?
