Note that the current plan is to provide GNU gzip compressed files only. You
can ftp gzip from prep.ai.mit.edu in directory pub/gnu.
Also, as the gcc developers did with their gcc snapshot system, even though we
will make the snapshots available on a publically accessible ftp area, we ask
that recipients not widely publicise their availability. The motivation for
this request is not to hoard them, but to avoid the situation where the
general GDB user base naively attempts to use the snapshots, has trouble with
them, complains publically, and the reputation of GDB declines because of a
perception of instability or lack of quality control.
