It is VERY VERY likely that this site will be moving at the VERY beginning of 1998 ... where, I do not quite know yet. I will post the new address as soon as I know what it might be.

If anyone has a routine which allows people to enter their e-mail addresses to be notified of site changes, please let me know how to do it.
