MX in Inpadoc

Be aware of the fact that a huge slug of Mexican A and B patents has been
added to the Inpadoc file over the past month or so, in at least 2 major
portions. A run I just did (weeks 9741/2) had no A's, but tons of B's, the
most recent from only May 1994! Several weeks ago there was at least one
other huge batch of B's together with loads of A's; I think the newest of
the A's was 1/95. So Mexico ain't up to date, but it's a lot more complete
than it was.

Memo to database producers and hosts: when a substantial alteration takes
place in a database's content, it would be thoughtful; it is essential; no,
let's make that ...it is not acceptable for you to be silent about the
matter. Reminds me of the time recently when BR status data started to
appear in the Inpadoc legal status records. We had to find that out for
ourselves, too.

Purveyors of information: think of your customers/clients, and keep them
informed!
