      Please  report any bugs you find or suspect to exsist along with  any
   fixes you might suggest.   New feature ideas are also welcome,  however,
   because of the present size of MB-KMD,  I'm looking for ways of reducing
   code, not adding to it.

      Several persons have contributed in helping me develop MB-KMD,  and I
   would like to thank them here.

   To:

   - Initially - Ward Christensen,  Keith Petersen  and  Irv Hoff  for  the
     MODEM2, XMODEM and KMD programs respectively.   There is NO doubt that
     MB-KMD would not exsist if not for the fine support they have provided
     through the years. (Not to forget about those who contributed  updates
     and fixes to these programs).

   - Tom Brady for his permission to allow NUKMD.HLP to be modified for use
     with the MB-KMD program,  as well as  many ideas that I picked up from
     the NUKMD100.ASM source code.

   - Arun Baheti for being so  patient  with me.  Many times I thought Arun
     would drop the whole Beta-Test project,  but  he never batted  an eye.
     Arun has offered many ideas as well, such as BATCH upload descriptions
     in a BBS message  base.   He has also provided information on  several
     assembly bugs that cropped up.

   - Steve Foust for the ideas he  provided  me  while writing the code for
     the routing of upload descriptions to a BBS message system and the use
     of his computer to beta-test MB-KMD at my own convenience.

   - Michael Conley for his continuing support in the development of MB-KMD
     and the ideas he has presented to me.  Michael has provided many fixes
     and nice features to MB-KMD such as  the datestamping routines for the
     upload descriptions, to name only one. 

   - To the writers of the XMODEM series for the ideas and code that helped
     make the BYEBDOS, TIME and RTC coding in MB-KMD alot less complicated.

   - To the callers of my own system  (Rock Island RCP/M-PBBS)  for all the
     patience they exhibited during MB-KMD's development. (Nothing could be
     more frustrating than uploading a 200k file and NOT being credited for
     the amount of time it took to  upload  it,  or being hung up on in the
     middle of an upload -- only because their time for the day was up. Not
     to mention the many other inconveniences).

   - I hope I have not left anyone out, but as is the  case  in  almost all
     thank you's, I probably have.  I want to just thank everyone that  has
     contributed in one way or another to the development  of  MB-KMD.  The
     overall support has been tremendous.
