- Now hold on a minite...... This is not a bug, there is no
- arbitary line length..... There is the misuse of Dave's group alias
- concept :-)

- ok, if we mean Oct 1 as Oct 1, I'd say 0. If we mean Oct 1 as the first
- week of October, about a 9. (I'll probably make the release up over the
- weekend, so I will probably actually hit the archive sites the 4th or the 5th.
- When comp.sources.unix posts it, is another matter.......)
