Yes, our applications list is exceedingly outdated.  However, we've
been in a rush to get a "fairly stable overall" version of
Executor/DOS out for some time now, and don't plan on changing that
file until that has been done.  It looks like 1.99m will be that
version.

OK.  Sounds like a good suggestion.  I've sent your message to Charles
Sandmann, the person that does all our DPMI work.

We have to get 1.99m out before we can rework our mailing list.  Are
you aware of the digest form of the mailing list?  That will limit
your Executor e-mail to at most one message a day, although the
message will be a digest.  You can switch from the non-digest to the
digest by sending e-mail to "majordomo@nacm.com" with a blank subject
and a message body that says:

unsubscribe executor
subscribe executor-digest

It looks very much like people are having trouble using e-mail.
