Walkthrough

Documentation across ACE and TAO now points to the GitHub ACE_TAO repository instead of Vanderbilt download URLs. ACE download tables also remove FTP alternatives and keep only HTTP GitHub links.

I’m a rabbit with a doc-edit spree,
Hopping from Vanderbilt to GitHub’s tree.
FTP paths fade out of sight,
HTTP links now feel just right.

Stale FTP reference in introductory text.

Lines 5–6 still state ACE is "available via both anonymous ftp and http," but this PR is removing FTP download links in favor of GitHub. Consider updating this text to reflect the new distribution model.

the README to remove the outdated anonymous FTP reference and align it with the
new GitHub-based download/distribution approach. Locate the opening availability

access method, keeping the wording consistent with the rest of the
