News source directories under [uucp.news59] : [.news_v59] Original V5.9 source code. This is included because Geoff distributes 5.9x as diffs from 5.9 (ie 5.9B was not dist'd as diffs from 5.9A). [.news_src] This contains the "live" source files for V5.9C. The executables in [.news_dist] were built from these. There may be slight changes from Geoff's original 5.9C release; these are described in the file aachanges.txt .
