True, you want to leave it in a state other than any of: feedback,
suspended, analyzed, or closed.

Any thing that ruins one's out-of-box experience isn't really perepherial :-(.
What about putting them into a new state `iffy' say? :-)

(Well, now that you mention it :-^.
(I'm sure a new set of CD's from Walnut Creek will turn up soon enough.))

Is the process for generating the CD-ROMs in the main CVS tree?
If that is the case, and you can point me at any of the relevant [doc,
make, directory] that is used to create the CD-ROM images, then I can
verify the fix and it can be closed.

	enjoy,
