Someone was kind enough to send me the following source for STL

>
> libstdc++ (part of libg++): Free Software Foundation
>  anonymous ftp via prep.ai.mit.edu and many other
  machines
>  only some containers exist, but works with GNU C++, and
>  probably many other C++ compilers

Other notes:
        1.  Got ObjectSpace working on PC w.
  Borland 4.5, Windows 3.1.  They are currently preparing
  a FAQ for their products.

 2.  Some sources allow you to compile STL source with just
  the header
                  #include <stl.h>
  as I believe (correct me if I am wrong) is the standard
  (See Vilot's article, C++ Report, Oct 1994)
     I think this makes learning easier as even simple programs
  might need header files that are not altogether obvious.

 3.  Rogue Wave's STL is currently in the works.  No ETA given.

HP already has the source for STL and some examples.  Perhaps we should
start an ftp site to share examples.
