What timing....

I have been off doing standards work, and not one of my passions of 
working on my arm systems.

Well a hard drive or two are failing and a couple other things are going 
wrong.  So here comes C7armv7!

Over the next week I will rebuild medon.htt-consult.com with this 
release.  This is a simple web server plus a few other odds and ends.  
Once I am confident, I will replace my other systems as I can.

Anyway, thank you all for your efforts.  My paying gigs are security 
standards and not OS testing...

I will be around.  Some.
