> 
> There are three ways to get a copy of the draft:
> 
> 	1. Anonymous FTP: The most recent draft is available on 
> 	   titan.cs.rice.edu in the directory public/HPFF/draft.  Several files 
> 	   are kept there, including compressed Postscript files of previous 
> 	   versions of the draft.  The most current version of this draft is 
> 	   0.2, which can be retrieved as a tar file containing LaTeX source 
> 	   (draft-v02.tar) or in Postscript format (draft-v02.ps); both of these 
> 	   are also available as compressed files.
> 
> 	2. Electronic mail: The most recent draft is available from the Softlib
> 	   server at Rice University.  This can be accessed in two ways:
> 	     A. Send electronic mail to softlib@cs.rice.edu with "send 
> 		    draft-v02.ps" in the message body. The report is sent as a 
> 			Postscript file.
> 	     B. Send electronic mail to softlib@cs.rice.edu with "send 
> 		    draft-v02.tar.Z" in the message body. The report is sent as a 
> 			uuencodeded compressed tar file containing LaTeX source.
> 	   (In both cases, the reply is sent as several messages to avoid mailer 
> 	   restrictions; edit the message bodies together to obtain the whole 
> 	   file.)  The same files can be obtained from David Loveman 
> 	   (loveman@mpsg.enet.dec.com) and Chuck Koelbel (chk@cs.rice.edu), but 
> 	   replies will take longer because real people have to answer the mail.
> 
> 	3. Hardcopy: The most recent draft is available as technical report 
> 	   CRPC-TR 92225 from the Center for Research on Parallel Computation at 
> 	   Rice University.  Send requests to
> 	       Theresa Chapman
> 		   CITI/CRPC, Box 1892
> 		   Rice University
> 		   Houston, TX 77251
> 	   There is a charge of $4.00 for this report to cover copying and 
> 	   mailing costs.

> Disclaimers
> ===========
> 
> A few caveats about the HPF draft:
> 
> 	A. The current version contains much material that has not been 
> 	   formally approved, and in some places contains mutually exclusive 
>  	   alternatives that are under consideration.  It should not be 
> 	   considered "official" in any real sense.
> 
> 	B. Changes will be fairly frequent until at least December 1992.  New 
> 	   versions will be announced on the HPFF mailing list and in the 
> 	   newsgroups comp.parallel, comp.lang.misc, and comp.lang.fortran.
> 
> 	C. Please address any questions, comments, or possible inconsistencies 
> 	   in the draft to the person(s) in charge of the chapter concerned, 
> 	   with a copy to David Loveman (loveman@mpsg.enet.dec.com).  
> 
> 	D. General comments can be sent to David Loveman 
> 	   (loveman@mpsg.enet.dec.com) with a copy to the HPFF working group 
> 	   (hpff-core@cs.rice.edu).
