Re: [Swprograms] ABC Radio National in 2006

Changes don't go into effect until after the "Silly Season" (combined 
Christmas/New Year holidays and summer vacation period).  In the case 
of RN that's January 23.  So no advance schedule available yet.  Don't 
know if BBC comedy will survive; but not everything is changing.
