Where can I get Perl over the Internet?
From any comp.sources.misc archive. Initial sources were posted to
Volume 18, Issues 19-54 at patchlevel 3. The Patches 4-10 were posted
to Volume 20, Issues 56-62. You can use the archie server
(see the alt.sources FAQ in news.answers) for ways to find these.
These machines, at the very least, definitely have it available for
anonymous FTP:
ftp.uu.net 137.39.1.2
ftp.netlabs.com 192.94.48.152
coombs.anu.edu.au 150.203.76.2
archive.cis.ohio-state.edu 128.146.8.52
jpl-devvax.jpl.nasa.gov 128.149.1.143
prep.ai.mit.edu 18.71.0.38
ftp.cs.ruu.nl 131.211.80.17 (Europe)
Larry's machine is the netlabs one, and the biggest Perl archive
is on coombs.
