"Thank you Rahul!" Second, I would like to propose to the group that we get all of gripes and snipes, etc., out on the table. Rahul has done a wonderful job in setting up the moderation of this group from creating brik to defining the use of the special article headers. However, "the customer is never satisfied" and I think that we have all proven that lately. There have been a number of very good suggestions that I would like the next moderator to consider. The group (and potential moderators) is/are invited to point up the weaknesses with these points. * Automatic [bi-]weekly (Sunday) postings of the current queue contents. (I think that requesting status on the queue would be just too much work on the moderator.) * Automatic [bi-]monthly (end of month) postings of the how-to's of CBIP. (NOTE: I am willing to work on what ever needs doing here.) * Moderator Vacation Notes (specification of the "dead time" and whether or not an alternate moderator will be active). --Frotz @Digital Research, Incorporated amdahl!drivax!frotz 70 Garden Court, B15 (408) 649-3896 Monterey, California 93940 Ask for John Fa'atuai PS: My vacation starts Monday (1/8). I will respond to any replies the following Monday.
