[arachne] 2DOLIST

Arachne at FreeLists---The Arachne Fan Club!

OK I have set up an email account featus@xxxxxxxxxxxx  solely for the
purpose of collecting proposals for arachne changes.

Aide memoir: It's a great feat for us to see the foetus develop in its
soft home. And the .net is a sort-of web!

Please remember to include *all* the FEATUS information within
proposals, ie

Fix or
Enhancement (state which) to
Arachne (give version number)
Titled (short)
User proposing this (slightly scrambled email address suggested)
Seconder (slightly scrambled email address suggested)

Can the sender please take responsibility for all the scrambling bits;
not too much so that a developer can still make contact by finding the
similar unscramled addresses in the "who" info from freelists.

The sender can choose whether or not to include a description to
expand on the short (will be one column of many in a table) Title.

Anyone ready to give it a go?

Further post to follow on the format of the resultant 2DOLIST file.
