Your posts are no more crassly commerical than mine. You have, of course, been dodging the essential issue of whether Sun (goodness or badness adjectives applied) is willing to permit binary distributions of "News" for systems other than those of Sun's choosing, or whether Sun intends to follow a course of more narrowly defined self-interest. I, of course, never dodge issues. 8-) -- George Robbins - now working for, uucp: {ihnp4|seismo|rutgers}!cbmvax!grr but no way officially representing arpa: cbmvax!grr@seismo.css.GOV Commodore, Engineering Department fone: 215-431-9255 (only by moonlite)
