Some thoughts for next weeks meeting
1. Patch release status? 8.1.11
2. look at mime support
- reading: turn this on and provide reasonable defaults?
- sending: go use netscape?
should think about mime word docs
jpeg/gif/pictures
audio
3. Think about removing the xlogin options (olh, xinfo, techinfo).
4. Start working through the issues with 8.2. e.g. perl5 -- how
transition?
