+
+The OO-Browser is actually part of an integrated tool framework that we have
+developed called InfoDock.  InfoDock provides a modern user interface on top
+of Emacs, information management, and powerful software development tools,
+all in one package.  Get it via anonymous ftp from host ftp.xemacs.org in
+the /pub/infodock directory.
+
+It is a standard part of the forthcoming XEmacs 19.12 release.  The Free
+Software Foundation also intends to add it to GNU Emacs.
+
+The OO-Browser is also available as a standalone package via anonymous ftp
+across the Internet.  Do not send requests to have it mailed to you since it
+won't be.  Instead have another party who has Internet access obtain it for
+the both of you.
+
+Here is how to obtain it:
+
+Move to a directory below which you want the 'oobr' directory to
+be created.  Unpacking the OO-Browser archive will create this
+directory and place all of the files below it.
+
+   cd <LOCAL-LISP-DIR>
+
+Ftp to ftp.xemacs.org  (Internet Host ID = 128.174.252.16):
+
+   prompt> ftp ftp.xemacs.org
+
+Login as 'anonymous' with your own <user-id>@<site-name> as a password.
+   
+   Name (ftp.xemacs.org): anonymous
+   331 Guest login ok, send EMAIL address (e.g. user@host.domain) as password.
+   Password:
+   230 Guest login ok, access restrictions apply.
+
+Move to the directory where the OO-Browser is kept:
+
+   ftp> cd /pub/infodock
+
+Set your transfer mode to binary:
+
+   ftp> bin
+   200 Type set to I.
+
+Turn off prompting:
+
+   ftp> prompt
+   Interactive mode off.
+
+Retrieve the OO-Browser archive and any diff-based patches:
+
+   ftp> mget oobr*
+
+Close the ftp connection:
+
+   ftp> quit
+   221 Goodbye.
+
+Unpack the tar archive with:
+
+   gunzip oobr*gz; tar xvf oobr*tar
+
+Apply any patch/diff files with:
+
+   cd oobr; patch < <patch-file>
+
+Read the "BR-README" file for installation directions and pointers to other
+documents.
