I understand, but will miss your posts (which are much enjoyable), your careful commits and your kind attention to everybody here (which I am particularly very thankful). Of course, I will miss your good humour Hoping to have you back soon. > One of the things I now need to do, while things on the development > side are quiet, is a heavy overhaul of my buildscripts (move to > DESTDIR installs before the real install, to get an accurate list of > everything that gets installed).
