OK.  GMTA.  I just posted a notice last night on GEnie asking about guidelines
for TNE.  No answer yet.  We should probably get together a list of things that
we think _should_ be considered (like do it yourself computer rules) and run it
by them, even without waiting for guidelines. Doing serious work is not prudent
yet.
