I have implemented the 2.10.3 B version of the usenet software on an IBM XT.
If it can be done on an XT it can be done on anything.  There were a lot
of minor changes to be made to get it to work.  I do not have the machine this
was done on nor do I have direct access to the source right now since the
machine in mind is down with a failed hard disk.

Anyone wanting the changed files from the standard release can send me mail and
I will put the stuff together once ahxenix is back up and get it to you
somehow...  In the meantime you can ask questions of me or Bob Leffler who
owns ahxenix, temporarily at ...!ihnp4!mb2c!fmsrl7!cideq3!bob.
