We have a lot of this in the plans for the Registration website, Dell,
it is as much a problem of getting the information than anything else.
Today all the changes in registrations are published annually in the
R&Is, and we have incorporated the changes to the '89 Checklist that
occurred in the 90s R&Is in the online Checklist. Of course the '99 will
be up to date as of the time it gets released to the publisher. You also
have to remember that we don't have a full time "Content Manager" for
the website yet, but hopefully we will be able to work with the
Registrar to work out a process to make all this available
electronically.
