"by spring" seems a safe way of conveying the "1st quarter '97" mentioned
on the website.Of course,the Website says 2.2 will be the next release,
2.1.6 is a maybe,last I knew Jordan was saying 2.1.6 would be a full,
CD-ROM-subscribed release version,and will presumably precede 2.2.0.

2.1.6 seems likely to be stabler than 2.2R,and is thus likelier for me
as an upgrade to the 2.1R I run my ISP on.(2.2.6,when it comes...)
