If you have a JavaScript enabled browser look at

http://www.geocities.com/CapeCanaveral/Launchpad/2640/explorer/explorer.html

Click on the "Chess" icon and than on the "EPD" icon. You will find the
following files:

    - ECM    the original ECM testsuite
    - ECM98  an ECM subset, as a result of the CCC discussion,
             compiled by Howard Exner
    - ECM98h an ECM98 subset, compiled also by Howard Exner
    - ECMf5  an ECM subset, part of the Fritz5 release CD-ROM
