I didn't see >it up there yet.. When might this happen.. Chris Chung "moderates" APPLE2-L. I haven't heard from him this week. It seems likely he's on holiday. We don't recognize (haven't previousley dealt with) the person who posted that message about sending version 3.85 to us. In any event, I have the most recent beta copy (14 Dec 88) from Ted Medin which supports the //c+ (latest "fix" so far as I know). Ted says he's on the verge of sending version 3.85 to Columbia (as soon as the docs are re-edited), if that happens, a copy on APPLE2-L would be redundant. After the first of the year, we'll check with Ted about the official release date; if it's going to be more than a week or two, we'll post a copy to APPLE2-L. LOTS of Bitnet sites are running unattended this week, and a few will be down over the weekend. Unattended operation means that dropped netlinks won't be restored until Tuesday morning. Since Kermit's files are relatively large, we'll have to wait until the holiday file backlogs clear (shouldn't take longer than a day or two unless something unusual happens) before letting APPLE2-L mail Kermit out. Have a happy, and DESIGNATE A DRIVER (who can drink at home while watching bowl games Monday)!!
