(Well, the version I have _is_ over four years old.  :-)

Recently, some other MIT types in my group asked for Zephyr services.
I downloaded aeneas.mit.edu:/pub/ATHENA/zephyr/dist/zephyr.src.tar.Z
and compiled it for SunOS 4.1.3 and IRIX 4.0.5 with only minor
hassles.  Testing proved less entertaining.  zaway doesn't work, IRIX
zleave coredumps, and all of the zhms wedge if the servers disappear
(and they stay wedged even if the servers are restarted.)

Before I begin devoting serious time to debugging these problems, I'd
like to know:

 -  Is the Zephyr project still active?

 -  Is there a newer, STABLE version of the software?  (I downloaded
    and tried to build what looked like a beta release, but eventually
    grew tired of fixing all the make errors.)

 -  Is there a mailing list?

Thanx
