Actually, I was thinking about renaming that guy anyway, ever since he became essentially nothing more than a very small distribution, like bin or doc. ;-) In fact, the more I really think about it, the more I get the feeling that we can actually just make that entire floppy _go away_. :-) The fixit floppy, on the other hand, could probably stand to be improved a fair bit - made more generally useful. I also need to make that whole "fixit CDROM" idea work. :-) Jordan
