+gcc-ss-20020128 is now available on
+ ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/snapshots/2002-01-28
+and on various mirrors, see http://gcc.gnu.org/mirrors.html for details.
+
+This snapshot has been generated from the current development mainline
+which is going to become GCC 3.1.
+
+You'll find:
+
+ gcc-20020128.tar.gz The full gcc snapshot, including all
+ languages runtime libraries.
+
+ gcc-core-20020128.tar.gz Just the C front end and core compiler.
+
+ gcc-tests-20020128.tar.gz The GCC testsuite.
+
+ gcc-ada-20020128.tar.gz The Ada language and runtime.
+
+ gcc-g++-20020128.tar.gz The g++ language and runtime.
+
+ gcc-g++-tests-20020128.tar.gz The testsuite for G++.
+
+ gcc-g77-20020128.tar.gz The g77 language and runtime.
+
+ gcc-g77-testsuite-20020128.tar.gz The testsuite for G77.
+
+ gcc-objc-20020128.tar.gz The Objective-C front end and runtime.
+
+ gcc-java-20020128.tar.gz The Java front end.
+
+ gcc-chill-20020128.tar.gz The Chill front end and runtime.
+
+Diffs from 20020121 are available.
+
+Note at times you may find newer directories on the server with limited
+permissions. These represent snapshots that have not yet been verified
+as correct, or are known to be incorrect.
+
+When a particular snapshot is ready for public consumption the directory
+permissions are relaxed, the LATEST-IS- file is updated and a message is
+sent to the gcc list.
+
+Using a snapshot before it's officially made available is an unwise thing
+to do since it may become impossible to update to an official snapshot.
+
+The "gcc_latest_snapshot" tag has been moved. You can use
+cvs update -rgcc_latest_snapshot to update your CVS tree to the latest
+official snapshot.
