I don't think that adding += was crucial to those who voted for it - it was
cheap.
On the other hand, am I the only one who voted for full Null support?
And I wish, oh I wish for full operational descriptor support, but I
understand that this one belongs to Rochester, so Mr Farr can't spend my
money for it even if he wants to.

And Jon, I understand about different divisions, but I sort of hoped that
there was a Big Cheese somewhere in IBM who could tell squabblers to "play
nice."  Ah, well.
