It has been quite some time since there has been a Zephyr release.

If you are interested in the new Zephyr code, which is known to address
several severe problems, and is more portable to other architectures,
and you have the ability to access AFS, you will find the current
sources (almost ready for distribution) in:

	/afs/athena.mit.edu/astaff/project/zephyr/src

Feel free to pick it up, try it out, and send comments, if you are
willing to spend some time to figure out how to customize it on your own.

I realize the documentation is sorely out-of-date, but if you are fairly
familiar with imake, you will be able to figure it out.

I usually bootstrap the process with "xmkmf <dir>" where <dir> is the
top of the Zephyr tree.  Please be careful when you copy the "config"
directory to follow the symlinks.

If I can package this up, without spending much time, I will place this
new version up for distribution on athena-dist.
