a) You do understand what I'm saying about subreleases vs. release? That
there shouldn't be anything that new (as opposed to, say, python 10-12
years ago, where each subrelease broke everything)? I would strongly urge
you to pass that question to the krista list.
b) I'd love to do some programming again, but a day job and a life outside
work (see (c)), I don't have time, and
c) I most certainly will *NOT* be on the list next week, as I'm getting
