Subject: Concurrent Programming
Does anyone done any concurrent programming in C language under Unix 4.2 BSD.
Note that the C language is 'normal' C language NOT concurrent C.
I am trying to develop a graphics package under SUN3 or SUN2 to simulate
real-time events. Any advice to literature and packages written are most
appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Subject: Daylight Savings Time
According to the magazine June 2, 1986 "Insight" (The Washington Times, pub.),
The Senate just passed S-2180, which changes the date of Daylight Savings Time
starting in 1987. They remarked that as the House passed a similar bill last
year, this is likely to become law. Although I don't want to get nearly so
bogged down in this issue as mod.std.unix did (at least not covering the same
ground), I would like to know what binary sites are going to do about their
time for about three weeks next April, if this passes. (I'm talking about
sites who can't afford or can't get an upgrade to their system that includes
a fix for this problem.) Again, new ways to handle DST have been beat to
death in m.s.u. I'm just interested in what binary sites are to do. I'll
summarize the responses in a future mod.os.unix. Thanks.
