Howdy, 
 To keep the mailing list clean I will setup a gnuwin32 on my personal
Web site. It will be http://www.deninc.com/gnuwin32 there I will
maintain all UNOFFICIAL patches fixes updates. If you have one instead
of sending it to the list send it to me an I will put it in the right
spot on that site. Then everyone can just go to it an download it. You
can also send a small email explaining what it is to the list. I hope
this helps... Oh by the way its a T1 so it shouldn't be toooo slow..
although some are used to faster I'm sure.....
 Oh by the way send patches or anything else you think others would be
interested in to jman@lx.net I'll setup an ftp incoming dir soon...
