Of course, a good deal of the BSD sources (by no means complete) are
available via anonymous FTP from gatekeeper.dec.com and uunet.uu.net.
Sorry, I don't know of any European sources although inria.inria.fr
might be a good place to look.

If you like I will mail you a recursive directory of the BSD sources
at gatekeeper - you can decide for yourself what you want to get.

Good luck!
