I am thinking of taking the plunge to upgrade to c-news.
Does c news compile without any deeply religious experiences
on an AT&T Systems V Unix?

Does c news improve performance during receive, unbatch,
and expire phases?

I do not have an internet connection.  So, where do I go
to get the most current version that would already have the
patches rolled into it?  (Does some archive site blend each
patch into the original source code, and then have the final
up to date source code available?)

Thanks for helping me understand these things.
