I disagree that's very useful. I'd prefer to have a "spec.txt" file in the case directory with the final specification. If the specification is complete (and it should be) then that future person should be looking at the specification first ... and for most purposes, should be looking at that alone. -- James Carlson, Solaris Networking <james.d.carlson at sun.com> Sun Microsystems / 35 Network Drive 71.232W Vox +1 781 442 2084 MS UBUR02-212 / Burlington MA 01803-2757 42.496N Fax +1 781 442 1677
