Kennedy Jr. & Associates, Pipe Creek, TX Lines: 18 I think it's time for another hearty cheer and pat on the back for Rick's long suffering and conscientious work on the news software. In his "copious free time" he keeps us running and still finds the time to make the tweaks and torques to make it work even better. It's too bad that he gets heat for it from time to time. I applied patches 15-17 today and the new expire capabilities gave me a smooth 5Mb additional free space in /usr/spool. That's not a whole heck of a lot unless you only have 30Mb in /usr/spool! He made it clear that this would be the last major effort towards stitching up the old system with the news ones imminent, and I guess I agree with him. I still think we can't thank him enough for what he does and has done (not to diminish the work that his predecessors did). One snappy salute from this site, THANKS Rick! -- Bill Kennedy usenet {killer,att,cs.utexas.edu,sun!daver}!ssbn!bill internet bill@ssbn.WLK.COM
