Re: PEM and MIME

        The Flagship PEM Implementation is coded to be an add-on to MH.  There
        has been no contact between TIS PEM folk, and the MH distribution
        control person (John Romine <JRomine(_at_)ics(_dot_)uci(_dot_)edu>).
        
        Since PEM/MH has been under development, many changes have been made
        to the official MH distribution, including MIME by MRose.  It is
        really going to be interesting when PEM finally arrives as a set of
        patches to an obsolete version of MH;-).

Stef,

I have told you before PEM is independent of MH.  What we have are some
additions (additions NOT changes) to 5, count them 5, MH files in the
UIP directory, one new program in the uip directory, and some
*additions* to mhconfig.c to "turn PEM on".  The diffs are so small you
can hardly see them!

I am sure I mentioned this to John in the past, since this has not
changed in the 2+ years I have been doing PEM development, but its such
a *minor* point maybe I did not.

Further we are completely in sync with MH 6.7.2, the latest and greatest
version currently available.

Now can we put this issue to bed?

Jim
