Dear folks - I, for one, love reading bug reports.  Maybe misery loves
company; maybe it makes me realize that gremlins and trolls are not
haunting *my* daemons alone; I don't know.  BUT PLEASE! PLEASE! PLEASE!

   << SPECIFY VERSIONS AND RELEASE NUMBERS OF YOUR BUG-LADEN CODE >>

This serves two purposes:  1) Those who are intimate with that code
can help you and   2) those whose code it (possibly) does not affect
won't be spending countless hours trying to reproduce the errors.

Try some of these buzz words:

USG 5.0		Unix Support Group release 5.0 (internal Bell System)
System V	Same thing, only different.
System III	Sort of the same, only older.
BSD 4.1		Berkely UNIX, release 4.1
"Ah dunno, but ah found some damn SCCS thing-a-ma-bob that said some
 fool thing like     `foobar - 2.6'"

Seriously, we'd all like to help where we can, but we have to know
what it is you're talking about.  Let's see more bug reports!  I
especially like the UUCP ones, they're near and dear to all of us.

                                                       Randy King
