Do I feel like it?  Hell yes I do!  I've been trying to figure out how to do
exactly that for quite a while now, as it's rather critical to the 1.0 release
criteria which I and others drafted.  Do you feel like helping me figure out how
to do it?

Two things:

1.  I only have two platforms available, WhyME and Why2K.  Luckily they're the
only ones that really matter (until WhyRho comes out).
2.  I want to do it daily (given a build that runs of course).

You don't like plain talk?  That's fine, there's room for both of us, Mozilla is
an "Open" project.

At least that's what people keep telling me.

Well, I suppose that works too.  Thank you.
