I have put

	dxpc-3.7.0-1.i386.rpm
	dxpc-3.7.0-1.src.rpm

to ftp.redhat.com:/pub/incoming from
<ftp://linux.wauug.org:/pub/dclug/jam> where they remain available.

This srpm should, I believe, build sparc and alpha rpms as well.  I
hope someone will build those and add them to contrib.  In any event
please let me know if there are problems building rpms for the other
architectures.

These packages are signed with the same key as this message.  The
public key is available from the public servers and from

	finger jam@linux.wauug.org
	http://linux.wauug.org/~jam/jam-keys.html

Now for a peek into the packages.

$ rpm -q --queryformat "%{description}\n" dxpc
dxpc is an X protocol compressor designed to improve the
speed of X11 applications run over low-bandwidth links.
$ head -n 22  /usr/doc/dxpc-3.7.0-1/CHANGES
dxpc Change Log

3.7.0 (Septmber 7, 1997)

Added compression for CloseFont, ConvertSelection, CreateNotify,
DeleteProperty, FreeColors, FreeCursor, GetAtomName, ListFonts,
ReparentNotify, SelectionClear, SelectionRequest, and QueryBestSize messages

Improved compression slightly for ChangeGC, CreateGC, CreateWindow,
ConfigureWindow, and FillPoly requests

Improved the text compression slightly (lengthened the context for
next-character prediction, added logic to use 1st-order predictive
model if 3rd-order model hasn't been built yet (helps improve prediction
during startup))

Added detection of the "accept requires a size_t third arg" OSes in
the autoconf configure script (using the original logic from dxpc-3.3.0)

Fixed a bug in ServerCache.C that was introduced in 3.6.1 (which was a beta
only release).

$ 

Enjoy.
