Anyway, I am delighted to stumble across this thread. Can I ask if there is any idea how soon one will be able, without a financial cost, to register as a user of GNOME and optionally ask to be kept up-to-date (or whatever)? (And I promise to backtrack through the thread, too.) cheers, John http://live.gnome.org/JohnWilliams _______________________________________________ gnome-web-list mailing list gnome-web-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-web-list
