I'm embarrassed, I have mislaid where it was I stumbled across that, which was 
probably less forbidding than I made it sound. I think a distinction was drawn 
between libraries and less-overseen things called "contributions".

Yes indeed, I intend to try that out. (And see the remainder of my reply to 
Ramana.) I will send you a copy of the "Notes" (which ought to fission into a 
paper and a user manual - at the moment they are just everything I could think 
of to write down) when I send them to him, and my HOL files too if you want to 
see them, though I don't feel they're in shape yet to speak of "delivering" 
them.

Once I have had Kanasaskis-8 installed here, I will appeal to you for help in 
connecting to your wellorderTheory.

Best Regards,

Lockwood
