As you have seen, this note and the protocols it describes have plenty of
room for improvement. Now, as the end-user of this function, you may have
a naturally strong and negative reaction to these crude mechanisms, tempting
you to send messages decrying my lack of humanity, decency, and legal
parentage to the atlas or atlas-comm mailing lists. While this is quite
understandable, keep in mind that I'm not a very understanding guy, and
am also a gigantic baby that pouts when my tender feelings are hurt. So,
the proper bitch format involves
- First thanking me for spending time in hell getting things
to their present crude state
- Then, supplying your constructive ideas
For a higher overview of things, scope out the paper
ATLAS/doc/atlas_over.ps, which describes
the ideas behind ATLAS, including several that are touched upon
only lightly in this note.
