That is sad news. Nevertheless, I'm convinced that many of us nourish hope of seeing your article surface somewhere else.
I just slapped it up on my cp4e.html, where it could have been all along. But since an editor of Pyzine approached me at Pycon, having sat through my open space session (people could book them at will), and suggested I submit an article to his magazine, I was giving Pyzine first dibs. That commitment stretched through many weeks and months (Pycon was last March), but was never infinite. I'll just self-publish, charge nothing, and enjoy whatever circulation the reading deserves. Yes, it's possible that reworking with some Pyzine editor could have substantially improved it, but the process wasn't working, as I'd already been asked to reformat in restructured text, whereas Word PDFs were fine for advancing copy or proofs.
By the way, even though [1] makes reference to [2] and therefore to Hypertoons, maybe mentioning Hypertoons directly in [1] would be appropriate ?

Now that Hypertoons! has a link from the cp4e page, I think we've got a clean linking architecture. A goal with sigs/edu-sig (the web page) is not to promote my own projects too much. Kirby
