OK, I understand a lot better now. I would definitely suggest a website
over the mailing list, unless it can be formatted in straight ascii or
something similar. That is certainly information I would find useful, to
say the least.

BTW, I assume that the Version 5: P&P v2 working version on the
http://abroere.xs4all.nl/pnp/book1.htm web site is the version that is
being revised? What has already changed in this manuscript?
