To reduce transatlantic email I sent the newest versions of GEMBOOT and
HDB to the ATARINET server (UACE0@UHUPVM1.BITNET) where they can be called
off.

HDB V2.3 has same minor improvements:
 - deselect floppy (the ROM startup code leaves the floppy drives selected
   till first access)
 - optional switch to floppy boot if a special key combination is pressed
   during boot

New features of GEMBOOT V1.10 (compared to V1.08) are:
 - incremental add of folder cache blocks during directory scan
 - indicates free directory cache space left after login
 - adjustable size of DESKTOP environment buffer
 - definition of DESKTOP environment variables within GEMBOOT.INF
 - optional use of batch shell other than COMMAND.TOS
 - new program GEMFRL.TOS to locate and print the GEMDOS internal free
   lists
