Just when everyone has stabilized on 1.5.10, here we go again.  I am
about to send 1.6.10 to the beta test group.  If you want to join this
group (i.e., get 700K of quasi-debugged compressed cdifs), send a message to
Glen Overby at overby@plains.nodak.edu now.  If the beta group likes it,
maybe I'll post a subsequent version to the net.    The posting is relative to 
to 1.5.10 (== PH 1.5), so you need that fully operational to beta test.


Comments on 1.6.10:

1. Designed for ANSI C (compiler not included); hopefully works with K&R C.
2. Supports V1 and V2 file systems (partitions to 2000 gigabytes, etc.)
3. Thought to conform to P1003.1 Chapters 5 and 6
4. Zillions of other changes.
