-The principal free @TeX{} distribution for Unix-like systems is @TeX{}
-Live, on the web at @url{http://tug.org/texlive}. The pages there
-describe many ways to acquire and/or build @TeX{}, over the Internet
-or on physical media, both the sources and precompiled binaries for
-many systems, either standalone or as part of various operating system
-distributions.
-
-Web2c, Kpathsea, Dvips, and Dviljk, among others, are no longer
-released as a separate packages. Their sources are now maintained as
-part of @TeX{} Live.

-The host @t{ftp.cs.stanford.edu} is the original source for the files
-for which Donald Knuth is directly responsible: @file{tex.web},
-@file{plain.tex}, etc. However, unless you want to undertake the
-project of building your @TeX{} system from scratch, it is more
-reliable and less work to retrieve these files as part of a larger
-package.
-
-In any case, the Stanford ftp site is not the canonical source for
-anything except what was created as part of Knuth's original @TeX{},
-so do not rely on any other files available there being up-to-date.
-The best place to check for up-to-date files is CTAN (the
-Comprehensive @TeX{} Archive Network), @url{https://ctan.org}.
