In order to get the 4.4BSD sources you must first obtain the sourcew
code to AT&T UNIX (since 4.4BSD is a derivative).  Last time I checked
this source cost $100,000 (US) for a commercial organization.

Some sections of the BSD sources are available from UUNET (but are
not up to 4.4, more like 4.2) and other locations via anon-FTP

The sources on UUNET are the latest versions pubilically available
from UCB. They currently are from the 4.3-tahoe tape and the "networking"
tape. When available, the non-licensed files from the 4.3-reno tape will 
put on line.

4.4BSD has not been released. It certainly wont be released this year.
It might be released next year. So, its a tad difficult for UUNET to
put the 4.4 sources on line right now.

Well, if you hop into your time machine% and jump forward to about
next summer, it should probably exist by then.

4.4BSD does not exist, therefore you cannot get it.  (Yet.)  The latest
Berkeley offering is called `4.3BSD-reno', and to order it you should
contact UCB CSRG with AT&T source license in hand.  A telephone number
to get started is +1 415 642 4948.  Be aware that 4.3BSD-reno is a
`test release', is not expected to be easy to install, is likely to
be fairly buggy (I have already made a number of changes to fix various
kernel panics and I have not installed it all yet...), but does have
NFS and ISO support (thus making it desirable anyway).

% DeLorean or TARDIS, your choice.  Personally, I would take the TARDIS:
  it may break down more often (if such a thing is possible) but it has
  a *lot* more legroom. :-)
