I'd like to help as well. I'm not sure if I've the experience needed
to do serious editing, but I'd sure be into some beta work.

I do appreciate the work Rich is doing and for those who find his
schedule too slow, find an alternate group.

I really haven't followed this thread from the beginning, but I've
seen the bashing of late and it's really too bad. It's too bad because
I've learned an incredible amount from working with software from
comp.sources.unix, all the while fairly safe in the understanding that
the sources I was getting were clean and thoroughly-tested. Piss off a
volunteer and you might well lose him. And that would indeed be sad.
