SUN's NFS source code is available to academic institutions for 1000 dollars/
sterling pounds. Contact Steve Isaac at SUN, Mountain View, California for
details. I don't think SUN will part with it to commercial organisations who
might just make a faster, cheaper NFS box...

How long is a piece of string? The release was going to be "real soon" nearly
a year ago.
