I am getting a lot of requests as of late to find out the various status
of things happening with macminix, so I wanted to give a summary
here.  I am in the middle of a fairly major upgrade, which I anticipate
being done in 2 to 4 weeks. If you know of a bug which is not on this list,
please send me a summary!!! They won't get fixed if I don't know about them.
If you have made enhancements that would be useful to other minix users,
please send them to me and I will include them in the upgrade. This is
the minimum I anticipate being in the upgrade:

		bug fixes
multifinder compatability
virtual compatability
term fixed to not crash machine
up and down arrows reversed on mac plus
GetNextEvent bug caused location 0xc to be stomped.
could not print more than one page at a time
non us keyboards do not work properly
serial line droping chars
serial line not properly maintaining speed
windows mispositioned at startup on those tiny 13 inch screens

		enhancements
LINEWRAP option
Cut and paste between windows
mdb
FASTBOOT option working in fs
escape sequence to change font and size from program
some other minor misc changes
