Hi Andrew,

As you already know but I probably phrased it badly
Boas has to post a letter to gnu.org handing over the "ownership" of the
sources to gnu.org.

The way I was planning on working this rather than having Boas fill out
multiple letters is that
he posts one letter when the patches get accepted by you all.

He also needs to post an md5 checksum to authenticate the patches ( I think
this is an IBM thing I saw no
mention of it on the release letter) for more info on md5 look at the
md5sum command.

If possible give me some feedback on the patches this morning as I'll be
out for the rest of the week.

Puzzled expression.

I'm pretty sure that parts of the changes will need more work (that is
without looking at them ;-).  This sort of thing needs to be done
incrementally.  It is simply a part of life.

What exactly do you mean when you refer to an md5 checksum and release
letter?  For this to work, you'll need to assign the changes and then
set up some sort of arangement where by you can continue to submit
patches.

I'm sorry but I'm confused.

     Andrew
