Hi:

Some info about the Mizar project is in my paper "An Overview of the Mizar
Project" available via anonymous ftp from

        menaik.cs.ualberta.ca
        129.128.4.241

in

        /pub/Mizar/Mizar_Over.tar.Z

After uncompress and tar you get a directory Mizar_92BRA in which
you find TeX source of the paper. There is no .dvi or .ps file.

For more info you may write to:

        Roman Matuszewski
        Mizar Group
        Institute of Mathematics
        Warsaw University - Bialystok Branch
        15-276 Bialystok
        Poland

Roman will provide you with instructions how to get a copy of the system.
If there is sufficient interest I will make all texts from the Mizar
library available for anonymous ftp.

The Mizar Group runs Mizar Digest as a moderated mailing list in BITNET.
Everybody is welcome to join. Some fragments of the first issue of the Digest
are attached below.

I will be delighted to answer any questions.
