Ah Ha....Here's some late-breaking stuff:                                      
                                                                               
For January - New Layout/New Features
   We've added a new section to Netland...a listing for Independent
Echoes.  This section will let you review echo mail conferences that
are not yet on the FIDO Backbone or on Alternative Networks.    
   We've also made an attempt to catagorize the various types of 
networks.  If you have any suggestions on catagories, or you feel we
stuck your net in the worng slot...please let us know.
                                                                            
Articles...Articles...Articles                                                 
   January is a dry month for articles...please give some thought on a
submission...if you don't...the area might have more of mine...and that
could be construed as cruel and unusual punishment!
                                                                               
   SYSOPS...let us know what you look for in a network...your articles         
will assist the Alternative Networks in offering echoes and files that         
make sense for YOUR board.                                                     
                                                                               
   PROCRASTINATORS...yes, you netmailed me and said you were working on        
the article, we talked on the phone, you even commented on getting new         
nodes because they read about your network in Netland...so, go ahead and       
get that article published.                                                    
                                                                               
   NEWNETS...Read the articles...there may be some good advice for you...     
                                                                               
   CALLERS...Your article will not only make you a published author...but      
it will also help your Sysop and the nets provide better service for you.
