**** You might have already gotten this letter.  I had a mailing problem &
 I'm not sure the e-mail went through so I'm sending it again. ****


I got the message:
	Congratulations, you have found a bug in
	NCSA Mosaic 2.4 (L10N/Fish) SIPB on Sun.

	If a core file was generated in your directory,
	please run 'dbx Mosaic' (or 'dbx /path/Mosaic' if the
	Mosaic executable is not in your current directory)
	and then type:
	  dbx> where
	and mail the results, and a description of what you were doing
	at the time, to bug-sipb@mit.edu.  We thank you for your support.

Here's what gnu db had to say:

Core was generated by `/mit/sipb/sun4etc/Mosaic'.
Program terminated with signal 6, Aborted.

Action at the time of the core dump:

 I made an annotation a few minutes before the core dump, just to see how
annotating worked.  I then tried to delete the annotation and that's when
Mosaic crashed.


More details:

 The annotation was on a preliminary version of a form-fill page that I'm
working on (it currently uses the NCSA query engine to show for debugging).
 I had 2 copies of Mosaic running.

Good luck,
