The fact of the matter is that I have picked Regexp back up and have recently applied a bunch of bug fixes and closed a number of open issues (I spent about 1 hour on it). I was going to close all the bugs the other day, but Nagoya decided to go for a trip for a few hours while I was working on it and I got busy with Scarab again. As soon as my current major Scarab deadline is over (Dec 20th), I plan to spend another couple hours and make one final release of Regexp. At which point, I'm going to call the project 'final' and Jakarta can figure out what they want to do with it from there. Previous ideas included just moving it to be distributed under the ORO project which I think is a good idea and will remove some confusion. I will probably be willing to help with that. I think that there are far larger problems for the PMC to focus on (which I still have not seen any response for) such as why all the file downloads for OJB are still on SF.net. -jon -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
