Here is the message I got from Michel.  I've been working on testing
the changes and going through the new version he sent.  By later today
I should be able to send a response to the group and to him.

Sneak preview:   series volume numbering's not working yet.

still here,
Sam

The revised b.index had been updated per specification.  I tested several
things but not all, nor all permutations of things.
 
Please check especially 4XX as there was considerable revision of those.
 
Also, I don't know what 027, 088, and 074 are supposed to look like in
the indexes. We have to do a custom "prep" for these, although these
are usually modest.
 
Re: spec item 4. The spec call for 400/t to index separately as a title,
then says to make consistent with 800 and use decode = P. Ordinarily
for a title, I would use decode T, but I followed 800 pattern and used
decode = P.
 
Please print an copy and review, let me know of any problems.
