      Perhaps you want to make sure GNOME works using just the native
      tools for your system instead of the GNU tools.  Perhaps you are
      sitting on the other side of a firewall that blocks the CVS
      port.  Whatever your reason, Jim Pick Software offers daily
      snapshots of the CVS version, in tarball form, available via FTP
      at <A

>ftp://ftp.jimpick.com/pub/gnome/snap</A
>.  The conversion to
      tarball form bypasses the need for GNU tools as well.</P
