Get it from ftp.xemacs.org
	/pub/beta/xemacs-20.0

To apply the patches, cd to the top level directory of beta34 and feed
the patches to `patch -p0'  (the -p0 is important).  Run `make beta'
to build.

There are a lot of new files, primarily due to the lisp/url going
moved into lisp/w3 in the new w3.  If your patch doesn't handle
putting new files in the correct directory, get the latest version
from the /pub/beta/contrib directory on ftp.xemacs.org.

* The distribution does not contain the Japanese info files due to a
  foulup.  A tar file containing them will be put on the ftp site
  shortly.

* This release has the first speedup patch applied, courtesy of David
  Moore.  It appears to make a difference. :-)

* As noted previously, the installed tm is not compatible with Red
  Gnus.

* There are a handful of cosmetic patches from the list in the
  pipeline not yet applied.  Most notably the end of buffer tag, and
  additions to the Options & Help menu.

* In addition to the upgrades to w3, ediff, and viper there are
  numerous bug fixes, etc.  See the ChangeLogs for details.

This is prerelease 1, the expected source-only net release will be in
about 2 weeks and aimed primarily at non-English speaking programmers,
and the adventurous :-).  There will be one more regularly scheduled
in 9 days, and probably another one a few days later.
