An interesting project and the "ground rules" seem equitable at first reading. If this project turns out well and the centralized bug reporting and fix distribution works, all of us in net-land should be properly grateful to those who have taken it on. I am unable to speak in any manner for AT&T on its "official" policy regarding the information collected by mt Xinu. However, as a user of uucp, I sincerely hope that the proper support group within AT&T takes note of mt Xinu's efforts and uses the information to the benefit of all the USG system users.

Sounds like this might be a reasonable proposal. But how reasonable are the tape handling fees? Are we talking the $50 it takes to get the Tex tape or the $750 for the 4.2 tape? By the way, I LOVE the name mt Xinu, and their ads which say: "We know Unix forwards and backwards." -- Mark Weiser UUCP: {seismo,allegra,brl-bmd}!umcp-cs!mark CSNet: mark@umcp-cs ARPA: mark@maryland
