MIRROR SITES
~~~~~~~~~~~~

If you live in FRANCE, there is a full mirror of the Parallel Archive
held at:

  Sites: ftp.ibp.fr and ftp.jussieu.fr
  Remote directory: /pub/parallel
  Timezone: GMT+0200 (MET DST)
  Restrictions: 100 (remote) users
  Description:
    ``Institut Blaise Pascal'' (IBP) and the ``Centre de Calcul Recherche''
    (CCR) of the Jussieu campus.  IBP is a federation of laboratories
    associated to the ``Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique'' and
    of the universities Paris VI and Paris VII.  It brings together the
    Computer Science laboratories of the Jussieu campus.  CCR is the common
    computing service of the universities Paris VI and Paris VII.


NEW AREAS
~~~~~~~~~

* More new package mirrors as usual - see below

* Rewritten WWW welcome page

* New WWW indices

  Each directory now has an index.html index file that is available from
  the WWW interface to the archive.  Much more information is available
  from this than the old gopher one, and it looks a lot better.
