+appear in the Proceedings Issue of TUGboat.

+Subject: Memo Class?
+
+Q: Regarding Memorandum Class(es) for LaTeX2e.
+
+ (short form)
+ Is there a popular/standard document class for creating memos
+ with LaTeX2e (and the AMS-LaTeX 1.2 add-ons) using TeXtures?
+
+ (long form)
+ 10 years ago I wrote my own "memo" style using the standard
+ "article" style as a starting point. Main features included:
+
+ - double column option
+ - 10pt, 11pt, 12pt options
+ - titlesection (created by \maketitle) sorta like
+
+ MEMORANDUM
+
+ To: ...
+ From: ...
+ Subject: ...
+ Date: ...
+ Copies To: ...
+ _______________________
+
+ - RHS header with
+ + short form contents of the "To:" field,
+ + contents of "Date:" field, and
+ + Page x of xx.
+ - footer with copyright info.
+
+ Its been great, but now I'd like to upgrade to LaTeX2e while
+ taking advantage of all the nifty stuff offered by AMS-LaTeX.
+
+ 1. Do I have to reinvent this or does something similar exist?
+ 2. If so, should I write a new class or just a package?
+ 3. Should this new class/package be more related to the
+ "article" class or the "amsart" class?
+
+Thanks very much!
