I will be bringing the four tapes that the GNU Project is currently
distributing.  A description of them is appended.

It will probably also be possible to ftp software from any of the
numerous ftp archive sites around the Internet.  Maybe have a glance
over comp.archives before you come?

See you in Anaheim.
