I think this is a GREAT idea that is long overdue. There are many cases
of battling our system software both through the apollo support
line and the Mentor Graphics support line (we are a mentor site)
only to find that patch 987125471-123 [:-) was not installed.

A list of patches distributed via this newsgroup semi-annually 
or even quarterly would be welcome around the world...
