I sent you a carefully excerpted and annotated tcpdump listing on June 5 that showed the bug in action, but you didn't reply. That plus what I perceived as a brusque/impatient tone in your earlier e-mails led me to conclude that you didn't have time or weren't interested. So I looked for a different reviewer. E-mail is touchy and if I misinterpreted yours then I'd welcome your involvement again. John -- John Polstra jdp@polstra.com John D. Polstra & Co., Inc.
