    Compuserve has made available in their Graphics Support Forum a
    new GIF89a document which details the current standards.

i am interested in getting a copy of the new GIF standard.
unfortunately, i do not have access to compuserve. i'm sure 
there are others that are in the same boat.

if somebody who has already obtained a copy of the standard 
from compuserve could make it available via anonymous FTP 
somewhere, they'd be doing the GIF hacking community a service.

if i can obtain a copy, i'd be happy to spread it around to 
existing FTP sites (or possibly even entertain a _limited_ 
number of e-mail requests).

suggestions, flames, pointers, and the like are welcome.
