Sorry, last time I looked for that, Jonathan was still moving things
about, and I was frustrated in that attempt.  OK, I *used* to do that, and
I'll start doing it again.

Well, the way he wrote it, I *think* I gave the right interpretation.  I
thought it was kinda goofy when conpared to any other software in the
world (commercial, free, or just plain odd).  OK, he's reading this, let's
let him make the call.  A one shot message that the software has been
modified for FreeBSD would be just fine in my book; needing an entry for
every change is pretty far out.
