This entire thread is, IMHO, really ridiculous.  I wish people would stop
arguing about what the patches should be NAMED, and let the CNEWS people
concentrate on doing whatever needs to be done to CNEWS!  The way people
are bickering about the patch naming convention makes it seem more appropriate
for alt.flame than for news.*

Now for something a little more constructive:

I recently got CNEWS running on an Esix sytem (with some help from several
people who had previously done the same thing).  The package installed smoothly
except for problems with one file -- spacefor.  If the cnews people are 
interested, I will send you (the file, diffs, or whatever format you like) 
showing what has to be done to make it work on Esix.  This would be useful
to others (if incorporated in the cnews package).  

(or maybe not enough people use Esix to warrant this??)
