Hi, Dave!

I got through almost everything on the list this week :)
Here are the results:

ASFiles	in the distro
Audio	should be deleted
WMOffiX	should be deleted (or keep it if you like, I do
	not remember, was it like a hack of OffiX distro
	or just a copy of it? Make an archive or "unsupported"
	or something like that...)
animate	should be deleted
asfaces	I cannot compile it -> until then it is out
asmail	the versions in f.a.o and the distro are exactly
	the same functionally, the version in the f.a.o.
	was simply reformatted by someone. I propose you
	use the version from the distro as 0.50
asppp	is upgraded to 0.1.3 = a merge of autoconf'ed 0.1.1
	and hacked 0.1.2 from f.a.o. witha minor update
	of mine
astrash	is ok, I am autoconf'ing it now
asxmcd	i cannot compile it -> on hold for the moment
ml	as you said: "this is going to be removed."
pager	should be deleted
tkstep	i think tkstep has its own home page, doesn't it?
	i did not check it yet - freshmeat is down and i
	do not have a link handy
wmrack	interesting, i am searching the WM sites but cannot
	find this one, i shall compile and see what it does
xfmail	should be removed. First of all, it has its own home
	page, secondly, it does not have anything to do with
	AS, thrdly, it is ugly (IMHO)

To summarize, for the moment I have to work on:
	asfaces
	asxmcd
	astrash
	wmrack

The rest should be pretty much all right. What do you think
about all this?

An unrelated issue: I noticed you do not put up
the PGP signatures. I will then just sign the tar that
I upload and not every single applet, ok?

Albert

P.S. I will upload the whatever I have ready for the moment
as a tar to f.a.o. as soon as I can because I am kinda Net-impared
these days. They still did not install my modem and it may
happen that I will be off-line the whole next week.
