          Feedback

 
          If you, as a user of the here-in presented submission make  sig-

          nificant  changes, enhancements, bug-fixes etcetera, PLEASE make

          them known to the person listed as the maintainer of  the  pack-

          age.  Feedback from users can provide help in various ways:

 
               1.  Pointing out bugs the maintainer was not aware of

 
               2.  Suggesting enhancements/changes  that  improve  perfor-

                   mance

 
               3.  Providing insight into support on other operating  sys-

                   tems and hardware.

 
          As an example, I just discovered some neat work  done  on  REESE

          BASIC by another organization on the Spring '79 tape.  These in-

          cluded support for non FPP  hardware,  and  extending  the  task

          (rather   than   generating  an  error  message)  under  RSX11M.

          Unfortunately I didn't discover these goodies until it  was  too

          late to inculde in this release.

 
          I can't speak for all submitters to the SIG tapes, but I  myself

          would really like to hear from people who use our contributions.

          I may not be able to help with all the problems, I may  be  able

          to  refer  you to someone who has similar hardware/software, but

          in any case, just knowing someone is out there on the other  end

          of this tape really helps.
