Subject: Moderators' Corner

We're experimenting with a new format to conform with RFC-1153 that we
hope will allow CuD to explode in most mailers.  Thanks to John
Stanley for his suggestions, and especially to an anonymous Texas
sysop (whose initials are BI and can be reached at
bei@dogface.austin.tx.us) for the patience to lead us by the hand in
explaining the procedure. Please let us know if it works (or if it
doesn't). If we can get it working properly, we will maintain both the
original format for files and the new one for mailers. So pass back
your suggestions and criticisms.
