It's new, it's rough, it's mainly to figure out what kinds of data we need
here -- right now, I can see that we need 2 spreadsheets; one for physical
drive formats, and one for OS layouts. (and yes, it's evil HTML ->
StarOffice 6.0 "saved as .html". I ain't goin' fer pretty yet... ;-) )

Believe me, I realize that it's not anywhere perfect... so I'm asking for
more input for whatever (many things) I've forgotten to include.

If you have info for different disk formats, please feel free to include
them, but please be aware that they may not be integrated until the format
is more solid.

Jay, I dunno if the addresses are munged in the archives... so I'm going to
err on the side of caution here. I have 1 mailing address that as yet gets
no spam (so has no spam-filter), and its:

{my Ham radio callsign} _at_30below.com.

(If you wanna go the hard way to find it, go here:
http://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/UlsSearch/searchLicense.jsp
and search for "Merchberger" and look for my active one.)

If not, I'll use the phonetic alphabet, hopefully spammers haven't figured
that one out yet for the spiders:
Alpha Bravo Ait Kilo Kilo

That address gets very little email (unlike my main address which gets
around 500 emails/day) so I'll see things quickly there... and also, the
main email is personal/work/mailer-daemon/root/catchall/whatever and also
has a spamfilter, so I might miss one email there. Rare, but it can (and
unforch, does) happen. This way, guaranteed not to be missed in any way. ;-)

Thanks,
Roger "Merch" Merchberger
