You can check the following, from the mail archive:
http://amber.ch.ic.ac.uk/archive/200207/0069.html
The easiest way to find things like this is a Google search:
anal group site:amber.ch.ic.ac.uk
The "site" is where the Amber mail archives are stored; the keywords can
be anything that seems relevant. This gives a nice set of hits.
...good luck..dac
