It is still too big an item for me at this time. I am not an OO programmer, for a start. However, the major point is this: In no more than 4 years' time, I shall retire. Therefore, the main focus of what I am currently doing is to get Exim to a point where other people can take it over. The code is now in CVS and others are making changes. The documentation is just about maintainable in AsciiDoc and XML. At the moment, I am working on the test suite. This is proving just as difficult as I thought it would be, and it will take a lot of time. While doing this, I am keeping the code "ticking over" by fixing bugs and adding small, straightforward patches. I do not want to embark on any major extension projects at this time, particularly those that change the "philosophy" in any way, implying a lot of documentation changes. I don't have time even to *think* about such things, let alone do them. The same is true for PCRE. -- Philip Hazel University of Cambridge Computing Service, [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cambridge, England.
