Everything else is already done :) Coordinating this with gborg/pgfoundry involves the infrastructures of both. When I do something, it ought to plug into those infrastructures in a fairly modular way, the alternative being painting myself into a corner as I've already done with the page frame :P Cheers, D -- David Fetter david@fetter.org http://fetter.org/ phone: +1 510 893 6100 mobile: +1 415 235 3778 Remember to vote!
