I used the name "Andrew" about 27 times yesterday when I was talking about Alexander. I am sorry Alexander. I've been reading your email for years now and you'd think I would know better. What can I say? I'm an idiot. Sorry. Anyway the sentiment is the same even if I can't get the names straight... cgf

Thank you, Harold. After Harold, Kensuke and Takuma can not offer their time anymore we are now short on developers.

I presume you mean Alexander :-) This is one of the good things about open source. Harold etc have done fantastic work (as has Alexander) but they don't have to be forced into continuing it, others can... David

Project leadership change
Hi, I have to make a sad announce: Harold Hunt, leader of the Cygwin/X project for some years will quit being the project leader because of his new job and family. With Harold quitting I'll take over leadership of the project and will be responsible for making releases, managing the website and documentation and managing the list. I hope I can come up with a similar performance as Harold had shown in the past and want to thank Harold for putting so much time and work into making Cygwin/X a great xserver with features similar to those from commercial ones. Thank you, Harold. After Harold, Kensuke and Takuma can not offer their time anymore we are now short on developers. This means that the external multiwindow windowmanager is not actively developed anymore and I can only continue working on small enhancements and bugfixes. Any help is greatly appreciated. bye ago -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.gotti.org ICQ: 126018723
