Ross,

	I have read your posting and Paul's reply.  I am out of the
office all this week, but please send us the list of missing sequences
anyway even if the reason is as Paul explains.  We want to be sure
that is the explanation.

	Paul's message did not imply that there was any need to delay
the implementation of the error-checking list on USENET.  Please be
aware of the fact that in the last month we had to finish up work on a
number of projects: implementing the RDBMS on GOS, revising the GOS
manual, finishing AuthorIn for the Mac, producing release 65, and
writing quarterly and year end reports for the NIH.  Work is still
continuing too on converting Fickett's code for the new feature table
format (although this got delayed by the above).  Because the USENET
distribution is basically an unfunded "spare time" activity, this had
to sit on the back burner.  It is still not completely on the front
burner yet, but we should be able to do something within the next
month.

				Sincerely,

				Dave Kristofferson
				GenBank Manager
