(La)TeX CD-ROMs available from the ILLC Buro

We have received a copy of the CTAN CD-ROM set from the Dutch TeX Users Group, containing many (freeware and shareware) TeX and LaTeX systems and utilities, for multiple platforms. People interested in borrowing this CD-Rom should contact the ILLC Buro.

This set of 3 CD ROMs is a nearly complete mirror of the "Comprehensive TeX Archive Network" (CTAN). CTAN is a network of several ftp servers containing a collection of TeX software. Here you will find complete TeX systems for various operating systems, macro packages like LaTeX, and utilities and tools around TeX.

The CTAN backbone servers are the ftp servers ftp://ftp.tex.ac.uk in UK, ftp://ctan.tug.org in the USA and ftp://ftp.dante.de in Germany. This set of CD ROMs was produced in September 2000 from ftp://ftp.dante.de by DANTE, Deutschsprachige Anwendervereinigung TeX e.V.
