[ "Nicaragua" is Spanish for "Vietnam."   --Bob Page ]

I had just gotten Matt's dnet up and working between the 1000 and the 2000,
when my 1080 monitor went ftzzzzt ... no horizontal sweep, so I haven't
used it too much yet.  What I saw of it I liked though, so I imagine some
of you are bussily working on client/server pairs.

The question's in the subject line:  who's doing what?  No sense in everyone
working on the same thing, so drop me a line, or post a short description, and
I'll summarize in a week or so.

Now the bigger question (for me) ... is *anyone* doing a SysV port of Matt's
code.  I'm not much on getting such ports to work, so I hope someone else is
doing this (unfortunately, we don't have a BSD system).

From the A2500/A3000 posting, looks like CBM has decided to go with SVR3 (I
guess that's what "Unix 5.3" is supposed to mean).  Too bad.  I wonder how
they will deal with the damnable 14-character filename limit?  Grrrrr ...
