- 3)    When are we going to have a publicly released Usenet newsreader and
 > uucp* set of programs for OSK? Mike Haaland has been working furiously on a
uucp/news package for the MM/1. We're close to seeing it as I understand. Hang
tight!

- 4)    Do wo have available the routines that
 > would allow an OSK machine to
 >         a) use MNP, V.32, V.42 error correction and
 >         b) auto-fallback for calling or answering to a modem with a
 >                 lower baud-rate? I use a 9600 baud modem all the time with
V.32/V.42 with no problems. You do need to use a serial port that has all the
modem control lines such as /t3 or /t3 for best results. The port will also
need to do hardware handshaking (RTS/CTS) for best results. Xmode /t3 type=80
does this nicely with the new drivers/descrptors available in LIB 12.

'fraid I can't help with the other questions ... but hang in there!
