You probably underestimate you knowledge :-)

actually, you already have contacted me offering your help w.r.t. to
the maintenance of the manuals (and web pages as part of the manuals).
Thanks again. Did not forget it. I'll just have to do some
restructuring of the current directory and file ownerships. Then
you'll get an account on our web server with full access to the ftape
stuff.

Guess linux-tape suffices as a user forum. Does "domain" mean
something like "ftape.org"? Would be funny.

Always appreciated.
Thanks
