</div>Well, it's only "urgent" in the sense that there are indeed a couple<br>
small changes that would really help, and if we don't use a release to<br>
motivate us, when will we it ever get done?<br>
<br>
But it'll still take someone to do it -- I'm afraid it's out of my<br>
depth to do so.<br>
<br>
There is a chance that Mark W. or Travis O. could do it, but it does<br>
seem unlikely that they'll find the time in the next week or two, so I<br>
guess we'll put it off, and keep the "experimental" label on there.<br>
