Poor assumption. Submissions mailed to amiga@cs.odu.edu (or posted to the apropos group) do not appear in /incoming/amiga on xanth, but are stored in a separate queue not available by anonymous ftp. Sometimes someone will ftp a submission into /incoming/amiga, but this is not common. In such a case I let it sit there until it's posted, and then I remove it (since it's then in /usenet). The DICE in /incoming/amiga apparently is corrupted. It's not the submission that will be posted, either. The origin of the copy on xanth is suspect; the one to be posted is direct from Matt... Just another case of use /incoming/amiga at your own risk (and send promblem reports to the address(es) listed in /README)... ...tad
