Hi Michael,
Thank you for your input. Very nicely and
succinctly said. It is true that DOS discussions on
this list often tend to wander to the extreme limits
of applicability regarding Arachne. However, during
these peregrinations I have learned many things about
Arachne, DOS and Linux which I may have never learned
otherwise.
I think I speak for the list when I say we appreciate
your hard work and continued support for DOS. We also
appreciate your postings to this list. Please make it
more often so we know we can know your opinions.
