Okay, for the binary package:
minor changes to rman internally (adding a "cat" page, name correction for the version part).
So the binary package is set to go.

But I do need the matching sources before I can post it.
I need them for several reasons: to check the licence that everything being done is right,
that some obvious trojan horse isn't present, etc. If the source code is "private" (that
is yours to own) but you don't want the sources distributed then this is not a major problem
but we should trade e-mail privately and directly about it.

For rman - the sources in their most recent version should be available here: http://polyglotman.sourceforge.net

For tkman the most recent sources are here: http://tkman.sourceforge.net/

Yeah, the tkman is easy enough 'cause the runtime is the source (being tcl/tk)
so I had no worries there.
For rman there were no changes from what's on sourceforge then, correct?

Okay. I'm going to start posting rman and tkman as "live" RSN.

> I've got the same stray cats but I just ignore them.

Well, keep feeding them and they'll stay around

(for fair readers "stray cats" in tkman-speak are man pages in "cat" format
on the system without matching original man sources.)
The man pages that SFU ships are in "cat" form only. So it likely makes sense at
some point to quiet this message since there isn't any value to to it.

I was just starting to clean some things up and noticed that tkman
and rman have both been "live" on the ftp site since October (when
this thread was active). But, they never were placed on the Warehouse web page
and I didn't do an announcement. Sorry about this, I don't know what happened
'cause everything else is all in place. So I'm going to do this announcement
now and see about getting it onto the Warehouse web page too.
