Lines: 10 I asked Rick Adams to put the 'IF' patch into Bnews 2.11.18 so that lots of people would have software capable of making use of the articleid/filename patch to nntpxmit before Stan published the nntpxmit patch - and thereby avoid lots of incompatable and/or incoherent patches to B news when the nntpxmit patch appeared. As it is, Rick caught a bug in my patch to inews, luckily before it got published. (i.e., 2.11.18 works ok) I guess you could consider this some informal sort of revision control. - Brian
