[Freeciv-Dev] Re: replying to messages (was Re: Re: AI cleanup Version 3 (PR#1203))

Dear diary, on Sat, Jan 05, 2002 at 07:38:58PM CET, I got a letter, where Jason
Short <vze2zq63@xxxxxxxxxxx> told me, that...

Funny, I wrote my mail, sent it and just got your one ;-). Well, I'm sorry for
this one, I forgot to check the cc list :/. However, it never occured to me
that some messages weren't forwarded.
