Due to the large number of requests for maint, I've decided to make it
available for anonymous ftp until it comes out in comp.sources.unix. It
can be picked it up from gumby.cc.wmich.edu (35.132.1.114) in the
pub/unix_maint directory. There's a VMS version in the vms_maint
directory if anyone is interested.
Rich $alz must be pretty backed up. I know the feeling....
