Does anybody have a set of patches to C news to cause it to keep the
third field of the active file up-to-date?  I imagine that both relaynews
and expire will need to be patched.  In case it matters, I'm running the
latest patchdate.

I know about upact, that's what I using now.  But it seems foolish not to
do the updating while you already have the information.  upact is *so*
slow, and it locks everything up while it runs.

Please mail both patches and me-toos to me.  If I receive anything I will
resend it to anyone who asks.  If I don't receive anything that works I
will do it myself and make my diffs available.

Thanks in advance,

Tim
