This is to let every one out there know what is up.  We are currently
having a network problem with rain.com, 2 routers went down on the same
day.  And neither has been put back into service.

It is unclear at this time when my real connection to the network
(agora.rain.com) will be back on the net.  Thus I am having to delay
the shipping of the ALPHA 2 kit to the testers, and thus it will
delay the release to the net.

I know I have incoming mail sitting on a host upstream, as I have an 
account there and was able to check the mail queues.  Unfortanetly I
do not have the required permissions to grab that mail.  I also have
several outgoing messages on agora.rain.com that I could route around
but it is a pain to do so.

The promised postings and the patchkit will be happening as soon as this
problem is fixed.  

Please do not reply to this account, I have turned the .forward off here
so that I can get CRITICAL mail, and do not want this mail box cluttered
with other mail.  Also this is not my regular host and I am not that familiar
with the mail tools here.
