New gawk and mawk packages uploaded, finally

[Chris Fearnley <cjf@netaxs.com>]

Greetings:

In spite of my hardware woes, I got new gawk and mawk
packages uploaded. Sorry, about the delay. I put them in the
/home/Debian/ftp/debian/project/experimental directory on master --- is
that right? Neither package is essential. Both provide an 'awk' package.
Mawk is section base, priority important. I didn't include section or
priority information on gawk since I'm not sure of its final resting
place.  The base package maintainer should make 'base' depend on the
virtual package 'awk'.  Thus users can use mawk, gawk, or both.  I
recommend mawk because it is fast and small (See Arnold Robbins
comments in the August 1996 issue of Linux Journal).

Previously, I have tested mawk on the base disks and had no trouble.
But I recommend that others try this --- just to make sure.  Any
suggestions on what we should do with the extra 300K on the base
disks?
