The Ganymede ftp archive is at ftp://ftp.arlut.utexas.edu/pub/ganymede/. The latest "officially released" things to download are:

• ganymede-1.0.12 (March 1, 2004)
• CHANGES
• userKit-1.0.6.tar.gz
• CHANGES.userKit
• COPYRIGHT
• COPYING

We've been doing a whole heck of a lot of work on Ganymede 2.0, though. See ftp.arlut.utexas.edu/pub/ganymede/2.0/ for our latest code drops. Even though we haven't made a big release announcement splash yet, the latest version of Ganymede you'll find under here is what we're running in production ourselves, and it is a lot cleaner and more highly polished than the 1.0.12 release.

See ftp://ftp.arlut.utexas.edu/pub/ganymede/2.0/CHANGES for a pretty exhaustive list of what has changed in the ramp up to 2.0.

The Ganymede distribution was created using GNU tar, and contains files with very large file/pathnames. Some vendor-distributed tar programs, including Solaris tar, have problems unpacking the tar file. If you are using Linux or BSD, you are probably already using GNU tar (if it supports the -z option to handle gzipped tar files, you are). If you don't have GNU tar, you can get it from ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/tar/.
