        So Auke is off on paternity leave for some month or so (I believe); the
good news is that we hope to cook up some sort of merger when he
returns.

        However, from the "didn't even bother to read the thread" department, I
was interested to see on IRC that someone was:

        "still amuzed by someone who just wrote "bootchart2"
         complaining that someone reimplemented bootchart"

        Which misses the point that bootchart2 is essentially an aggregation of
the code from various existing projects and forks, with their
developers, and then incremental improvement on top of that. True, it
was renamed to avoid confusion with the (by now very old & obsolete)
shell + Java original called: bootchart.

        Regards,

                Michael.
