csos.orst.edu changed their domain quite some time ago.  The old one still
works, but, FYI, the new one is peak.org.  So, these statically-linked
Mosaic binaries would be:

	ftp://ftp.peak.org/pub/NetBSD/misc/{i386,hp300}/...

One of these days I'll have the time to re-build an i386 binary using X11R6,
and likewise make a sparc and m68k8k version available.  Just a matter
of finding the time, although that might not be a problem because I'm
getting alot of calls from folks at work who no longer wanna run SunOS
on their sparcs :-)
