RE: [Axiom-developer] RE: completion of algebra lattice

[Weiss, Juergen]

I think I build the database on cmu cl. Difference in
size is probably due to not including hypertex references
into the database files. That should not make any
difference to the current problems. Besides that, no
``magic'' was involved.
