To the best of my knowledge, there still isn't a freely available, reliable
current version of the Code of Federal Regulations out there.  Federal
Register 1994-> is part of GPO Access.  Ditto, U.S. Code (in force January
1994) and Public Laws of the 104th Congress.

There has been an experimental version (non-updated, proof of concept) CFR
from the House of Representatives for more than 18 months.  Law Marks has had
a gopher-based service in place that appears to be updated, but somewhat
slowly
