Good grief, you never have to shutdown that far if you just want to restart. Doing an 'ex' in the DM will take you down low enough to restart all the software, but the network will still be up and the disk accessable, so remote users won't notice. I think if you aren't running the DM you can get an equivalent shutdown by killing init, although I'm not sure with what signal (probably TSTP). -- +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+ | Alphalpha Software, Inc. | Voice/Fax: 617/646-7703 | Home: 617/641-3805 | | 148 Scituate St. | Smart fax, dial number. | | | Arlington, MA 02174 | Dumb fax, dial number, | BBS: 617/641-3722 | | nazgul@alphalpha.com | wait for ring, press 3. | 300/1200/2400 baud | +-----------------------------------------------------------------------------+

Are you publishing any of the proposed internationalization
changes to the public?
All of our standards go through a public review process. The
internationalization work is not yet to that stage.
Or, should you be an associate member to
find out what's going on?
At this stage you need to be a member of the Consortium. When ready,
the documents will be made available for public review.
I am interested in this subject and
would like to know what the Consortium is working on.
Broadly, the Consortium is currently working on internationalized keyboard
input, internationalized text drawing, and internationalized resources.
