[comp.windows.interviews] What patchlevel is the 2.6 distribution?

Hi.  I recently grabbed the 2.6 source off of interviews.stanford.edu, and I
am wondering what patches have already been applied to it, if any.  I am not
sure where the best source of information about this kind of thing is...I was
told that this newsgroup may be archived on that same machine, but all I found
was an archive of mail, not the newsgroup.  How does one avoid re-asking all
the questions that have been posted and answered?

I had grabbed a copy of the 2.6 source about a year ago, but when I compared
the new copy with the old, the dates for the files in the tarfile were
actually newer (by a little) in the older copy!

I would grab the 3.0 beta source, but recent postings seem to indicate that it
wont compile under gnu compilers and libg++, right?

Please point me towards more information about this so that I wont have to
clutter the network with questions.

Thank you very much.
