now in pub/incoming, soon in pub/waffle/news, rusn-098.zip is the successor
to rusn-097.zip which you may or may not want.

the standard thing with the "s in the /dir= is hopefully _finally_ fixed
(despite my disbelief that it was even _possible_ that that particular
section wasn't working until it failed in front o' me very eyes)

the threading should be _way_ better - but at the price of memory.  if
you use rusnews0 v0.97 under waffle.exe, you probably will want to keep
a copy of that around, as the number-of-selectable-articles per group has
decreased in v0.98 (it had to be traded off for the threading data)

the treatment of References: lines has also been improved when posting
followups.

it is recommended that almost no one run anything older than v0.98 (except
for those mentioned above, of course, and even then it's not a sure thing)

showing up on remote for anonymous uucp once the humans and mirror programs
get ahold of it.

thanks to Ralph for the disk space.
