Hi all, I'm new here so please take that into consideration... but as John Goerzen is tagged `on vacation' in the developers LDAP database, perhaps his failure to reply to an e-mail might only be a temporary thing. Unfortunately AFAICT non-DDs aren't able to get access to the MIA database; perhaps one of the DDs on the list could check on Mr. Goerzen's status. From what I can see he looks to be quite an active developer, at least up to June/July... I believe Mr. Goerzen is in the U.S., but even Americans do take August holidays some times ;) -- Thanasis Kinias Doctoral Candidate, Department of History, and Instructor, Professional Enhancement Programs Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona, U.S.A. .
