     This morning I posted an item stating that, because of a few abusive
mailings I had received, I was no longer willing to consider changing the
name of my parser generator Zoo.  Since then, my anger at those mush heads
has ebbed, and I am again planning to rename Zoo.  The enthusiasm of the
responses to my request for suggestions for another name played a large
role in causing me to relent.

     So far, the suggestion I like the best is ox.  It was suggested by

	Rayan Zachariassen		University of Toronto,
	Don Pardo			University of Washington, and
	Paul Eggert			Twinsun

I am still open to suggestions.

						Yours very truly,
						Bob Corbett
