Everything you and others have sent to me privately are waiting for examination in my "tuxpaint-pending" mailbox. I've also got dozens of messages stored in my Tux Paint 'inbox', many of which I'd like to go back to and address... > What's the story here? Well, first off, after the big release last month, I've honestly been a little burnt out with Tux Paint code development. More importantly, though, I've been quite busy at work (the app we submitted for testing got rejected, so I've spent the last week tracking down and fixing the bugs they found... plus implementing some other slight changes my boss decided we needed). I've also been asked to write a ~5000 word magazine article about Tux Paint, and the deadline is coming up in a few days! (I'm less than halfway done!) And to top it all off, my wife and I have both been sick!!! :^( :^( > It's a pain to write code without knowing if previous > changes have been accepted or rejected.

I think posting patches here isn't beyond reason, and the other folks who are intimately familiar with Tux Paint's code (like Karl Ove Hufthammer and Mark K. Kim) have been known to commit other people's patches into CVS for me. ;^) I think after the Thanksgiving holiday has come and gone, I'll be more available to poke at stuff. (Our current plans are to drive ~15-20 hours up to Washington state next week, and then back. But if we're sick, we might need to cancel that trip) *bleh* Anyway, sorry again! -bill!
