Dear Vicki and Chris,

Just to let you know, this is the first piece of mail I've received
from the MacPerl list since I've contacted you on the subject. This
arrival brings a few questions to mind:

Were Chris and I the only ones subject to this outage?
Was something corrected?
If so, then should there be an announcement on the mailing list to
the effect that it was out of order and for how long?

Best regards,
Joseph
