	In the event of a TFN failure there are strict
	procedures to ensure the fairest possible disposition
	of remaining assets.  Nabil is either misinformed
	(as usual) or misrepresenting that scenario (or both).

	Right now the HW/SW group is up to its eyeballs in
	preparing both the tiered-access & a new version of
	lynx for production - these are both _major_ efforts
	which proceed at the pace that volunteers with available
	time can give to it (including CSAS members).


	No matter what reality intervenes to indicate otherwise,
	I fear Mr. El-Khodari will continue to ignore it so
	he can contiune to rant and rave.  Perhaps (as I and
	many others have done) the deployment of a killfile
	entry with your newsreader might be indicated...
