No, Tom. It's not me, but the ever helpful Glenn Mc Corkle and
Clarence Verge who are working on the "RDL" problem. (and on
other things as well) All I did was send Glenn a url to test and I
couldn't even type that correctly! <grin>

Both Glenn and Clarence have been testing something they call
Arachne 1.71 Alpha. They haven't said when Alpha might turn to Beta.
Glenn has said in the past that "a number of improvements have
been made."

Michael Polak, the developer of Arachne,  told me in February that
he is planning on further development this year, but will be
concentrating on a version that might be sold to cell phone
manufacturers and on Linux.

How these efforts might be co-ordinated into a future release of
Arachne, I don't have a clue.
