Well, we all know Greg Ward's one of those subversive types, but then again it's great to have (hopefully now-loyal) defectors in our camp, just to keep us honest :) Anyway, thanks for sending the code, it'll come in handy if I get stuck. Of course, my P**l skills are so rusted I don't think even an oilcan-armed Dorothy could lube 'em up, so I'm not sure how much use I can put them to. Besides, I already have a huge kludge that gets run on each commit, and I don't think it'll be too hard to add diff generation... IF the informal vote goes that way. -Barry
