	Hi,

	I've had a browse of ftp.cdrom.com, and it looks like you can only
	get the entire distribution for the latest SNAP - is this correct?

	I have the 2.0 CD [from Walnut Creek], and would like the latest
	stuff, and would prefer just getting patch/diff files, say from 2.0
	to the 1st SNAP + the 1st SNAP to the 2nd, etc. Linux is available
	like this, and although after a while it's faster/easier to get the
	entire distribution, I would be surprised if this was already the
	case with, say, the April SNAP compared to the 2.0 CD?

	So, does anyone know where/how I can get SNAP diff's to get me from
	the 2.0 CD to the latest SNAP?

	thanks, ...
