So you are saying that, as a direct descendent, the finite state automaton that allows the remote end to determine 4.2-ness vs. 4.3-ness wasn't broken, and that the automaton results in the remote side concluding 4.3-ness? I don't think the descent is nearly so direct conceptually. Terry Lambert terry@cs.weber.edu --- Any opinions in this posting are my own and not those of my present or previous employers.
