	I remember a discussion a while back that the changes to allow
user names of greater than 8 characters that are presently working in
current would be back-ported to 2.2.x RSN.  I'm wondering if this
change will be made in time for the 2.2.5 release.  

Curious,

Doug (who would really like to see this done :)
