     I have been asked to come up with another name for Zoo, since there is
apparently an archiver named Zoo.  I do not see the problem.  If you have the
other Zoo on your system, please feel free to change the name of one or the
other.  Nonetheless, I am willing to entertain suggestions for other names.
To start the ball rolling, I will mention that Zoo was originally named Zeus
(a terrible choice) and Bison was originally named Byson.  Please reply to
me rather than posting to news (save the bandwidth).

     To those who feel I acted irresponsibly in not checking for name clashes
before making my program available, please feel free to not put Zoo on your
systems.

						Yours very truly,
						Bob Corbett
