For starters, let me say that qI don't expect anyone not on the
infoagents list to understand how funny this is. Jered, I apologize,
even though I still think that I'm right. :-) :-) :-)
Mike, the infoagents list doesn't have anything to do with the
infoagents locker anymore. I know that this is confusing; I'm
considering renaming the list, but some of the software in the locker
pointed to the list in the past, and infoagents is `the right place'
for that software to point anyway. I suggested to the people
maintaining the infoagents locker that they consider getting a
bug-infoagents list, but they decided that just `cwis-dev' was enough.
This type of error has always plagued IS, and undermined its
professional appearance. Perhaps the asylum team should take a look
at the problem.
In any case, problems with the infoagents locker should be sent to
`cwis-dev', or at least that's what they tell me. :-) Problems with
the iadev locker can be sent to infoagents and/or myself (having been
JIC in the past, I know that `yandros' fits nicely in the field. :-).

I must agree with Jered that the new version of netscape should have
been installed long ago; I was under the impression that it was going
to be dealt with `shortly' a while ago.
