Subject: FITS checksum proposal

A new draft of the FITS checksum proposal is available from:
 
    ftp://iraf.noao.edu/misc/checksum/checksum.ps
 
A README file and example data and code may be retrieved from the same
directory.
 
The major change from earlier drafts is that the unsigned integer value
of the DATASUM keyword is no longer ASCII encoded.  Various suggestions
from Barry Schlesinger and Arnold Rots have improved the document.
 
Rob Seaman, Bill Pence
