I sent a message on this topic about two weeks ago, but i have reason to
believe it never attained wide distribution, if i'm wrong, please excuse
the wasteage of bandwidth.

I learned not too long ago that i and my company have missed the 1.0.X
update window.  OSF was kind enough to send us the 1.1 tape however.
Unfortunately, for various reasons (schedules and reduced resources) i
would much prefer to update to 1.0.3 (or better).  Also, i do not have
it in my power to update X11 to R4.

Before i really attempt such a thing, i have a number of questions:

1. How much work is updating to 1.0.3+?  Hours?  Days?  Weeks?  Months?
Don't worry about intangibles.  An estimate with 2X error is fine.

2. What is 1.0.3?  An entire source tape?  A series of source patches?
If a bunch of patches, how many are there?

3. IF 1.0.3 is only a series of patches, anyone out there willing to send
them to me?  


Many thanks in advance. --aj madison
