+<URL:ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/auctex/>.  At release time, we provide
+the source tarball, source and binary RPMs for Emacs under SuSE, and a
+platform-independent XEmacs package file.  Also check the footnotes
+for versions of Emacs already including AUCTeX.
+
+RPMs with minor version 1 are built from the spec file in the tarball
+which should work on both SuSE as well as Fedora (though we have not
+tested the latter).  The source RPM for SuSE should also work for
+rebuilding RPMs on Fedora.
+
+The XEmacs package file can be discerned by `pkg' in its name.  It is
+usually more recent and functional than what gets distributed from
+XEmacs servers and as part of the Sumo tarball.

+A separate directory for each release contains some stuff from the
