Latest

The latest packaged source releases are available at http://slate.tunes.org/downloads/slate-current.tar.gz. This is a semi-automatically compiled snapshot of CVS contents. It will not receive updates from CVS, and will often contain bugs, but will generally represent stable points in the bleeding-edge developments. (Note: This distribution does not come with vm sources and images currently. Download those from the alpha site or run make get-alpha in the download directory to obtain them.)

CVS / Development Access

Slate is currently developed and managed within a CVS repository, viewable through a web interface. A current-working-set of VM sources plus images are maintained at http://slate.tunes.org/downloads/alpha/ in order to provide a common stable reference from which bleeding-edge development can proceed. This keeps everyone up to date on bootstrap-related issues.

Anonymous checkout access to Slate's CVS repository can be made in the same manner as on the Tunes site, but setting your CVSROOT environment variable to :pserver:anonymous@cvs.tunes.org:/var/lib/cvs/slate; the password is "anonymous". This will create a slate directory and unpack the files into it. Instructions for its use will be in the file README for the time being.
