	[Questions about patch distribution]

	As new patches are created, they are made publicly available for
anyone who can get to the information services to download. Also, the
patches are available on an "as-needed" basis; if someone calls in with
a problem that a patch can solve, they're referred to the info services,
or else they can send in $10 and get a disk with the patch on it. It is
too expensive to prepare and send out a mailing for every patch that comes
along, even more so since patches are not planned upgrades.
