In what has to be the first known episode of this, it appears the God, in
conjuction with UPS, has conspired to delay this issue by nearly a month.
The salient details of this conspiracy are probably best discussed
in alt.conspiracy.linux. Suffice to say, shipping delays, the worst winter
in several years, and an earthquake all combined to force this issue
to be released way beyond its initially schedule date. 

Now for the good news. The new Linux Quarterly, Winter '94, begins shipping
this  Thursday. Customers who've placed advance orders for this CD
will receive it via 2nd day air at no additional cost. Dealers will 
receive their copies shortly, as well. Thanks to the delay, or rather, 
in spite of it, we managed to get the PL15 kernel added to the master only 
hours before it went into production. Lots of other nice goodies are in 
there, too.
