I'm back from Florida, and eager to get working again on Leo.  I'm
also busy reading.  The competition for time resources is even more
intense than usual :-)

My plan is to clear email, then work on bugs and the two major
remaining features:  completing autocompletion and vim bindings.

P.S.  Here is what I am reading at present:

Obama's Wars:
http://www.amazon.com/Obamas-Wars-Bob-Woodward/dp/1439172498
Woodward is a good candidate for the Nobel Peace Prize.  This is the
Rosetta Stone that decodes present US politics re Afghanistan, and
offers a way for us to end the war.  The book shows how hard it will
be to oppose the military.

The latest edition of Foreign Affairs is excellent:
http://www.foreignaffairs.com/
The two articles about Afghanistan are quite a contrast.  The "Plan B"
article gives a perfect summary of the situation, though I disagree
with the conclusions. The other is wishful thinking by a Bush
official.

The lead article about social networking is much better than I
expected.  Truly informative.

I'm in the midst of reading several other books right now, including:

The Winner Take All Society
http://www.amazon.com/Winner-Take-All-Society-Much-More-Than/dp/0140259953

Blowback, second edition
http://www.amazon.com/Blowback-Second-Consequences-American-Empire/dp/0805075593

Dismantling the Empire
http://www.amazon.com/Dismantling-Empire-Americas-American-Project/dp/0805093036

The Moral Landscape
http://www.amazon.com/Moral-Landscape-Science-Determine-Values/dp/1439171211

Washington Rules
http://www.amazon.com/Washington-Rules-Americas-Permanent-American/dp/0805091416

The Irony of Manifest Destiny
http://www.amazon.com/Irony-Manifest-Destiny-Tragedy-Americas/dp/0802716997

A Life Decoded
http://www.amazon.com/Life-Decoded-My-Genome/dp/0670063584

Fall of Giants
http://www.amazon.com/Fall-Giants-Century-Trilogy-Follett/dp/0525951652
This is book one of Ken Follett's 20th century trilogy.  The portrait
of the British upper class applies verbatim today to our plutocrats.
