The patch location was only mentioned in the very first posting because I wanted to limit distribution of what I considered alpha code. I haven't had any more complaints since the second alpha distrubution. I'm not quite willing to declare it beta; however: The alpha2 patch kit is available only on agate.berkeley.edu. The hidden subdirectory is /pub/incoming/terry. You can ls once there and get a copy of the kit. Please do not repost the kit on other archives. I would like to get an "all known patches" kit as part of the initial beta distribution, and I am almost there. In particular, I have 15 more patches in "patchkit format" and am working on getting information from the authors of incomplete patches so that they can be included.
