Quite interesting. I just netscape'ed over there and took at look at
it. What I saw was a much toned down version of what you posted (but it
still has the 08 Nov 1994 edit date. I wonder why the discrepancy?
What you've included like many have said, is much closer to the Jargon
File (prep.ai.mit.edu:pub/gnu/jarg310.txt.gz). It is very good reading!
The 2nd Edition of "The New Hacker's Dictionary" is a published form of
version 3.0.0 of this file (Sept 1993).
