  This note should be followed by 11 parts containing the 2.3.1 03 JAN 1991
version of the infamous jargon file. To re-assemble it, simply unshar the
parts and cat them together.

  This file will also be available on dorm.rutgers.edu under pub as
`jargon.<nnn>', where <nnn> is the digits of the current version
number (that is, version 5.6.7 would be `jargon.567').

  Future versions up to 2.4.1 (whenever that is) will be posted as
context diffs.

  This version is a draft for "The New Hacker's Dictionary", now
expected to come out from MIT Press sometime in summer 1991.  This
draft is being circulated to the hacker community for criticism and
additions. Your comments and new entries are welcomed; mail them to
jargon@snark.thyrsus.com or ...!uunet!snark!jargon.

  Please get your comments and revisions in soon.  The freeze deadline
for the manuscript is not that far in the future.

  I can also be reached by USnail at 22 S. Warren Ave., Malvern PA 19355
or by phone at (215)-296-5718.  However, I *strongly* prefer
submissions, comments and criticism to be communicated via email.
