Minnie has the following BSD-related stuff available by anonymous ftp:

   + FreeBSD - FreeBSD 2.0.5-RELEASE, and some previous versions.
   + bsdnews - The Usenet news about *BSD, from June 1992 onwards.
   + daemons - Gif images of the BSD Daemons. These are copyright by
	       Marshall Kirk McKusick. 
   + phillip - NFS mount of some other *BSD stuff, which is maintained by
	       Phillip Musumeci here at ADFA.
