Hey, John

That's quite the list. Thanks for your contributions.

Now, while I haven't pulled a copy of 3.0.4 from CVS yet, I've a question: I don't know how you did the rewrite, but I'd be interested to know if the steps you took rewriting the code resulted in rendering irrevalent the note about compiling in OS X under UFS...

Regenerated configure stuff. > * Added line for .png to gopherd.conf.in > * Added note about UFS builds on MacOS X to doc/PLATFORMS > * Added FAQ and modified debian/docs > * Updated gopherd.8 with information about type 'i' > * Fixed gopher's URL handling -- it was missing the type character. > Closes: #138337. > * Another regex change. Let's hope this fixes things for Solaris. > * Fixed to properly calculated first arg to select in gopherd.c
