This is indeed on the way (it should have been up some time ago but we
have but one web master...).

I happen to agree (I edit the config files using emacs) - but the
individual was complaining because there wasn't an X based config tool
- and I was pointing out that this was part of our distribution.

Well - moving halfway round the world can be somewhat time absorbing!
Add to this that I remarried a week before leaving Australia and have
spent one of the 4 weeks I have been here in the USA at a
conference/show in Washington DC (as well as a daytrip to Boston) and
I think that you'll understand I have been a bit busy!

Needless to say, I will be around the lists when time permits - but I
can assure you that working at Red Hat ensures you have no time to get
bored :-)
