Keep in mind, I didn't start this thread. I'm not the only one who read |
| 30 |
the news item and it not make good sense. I might add, I followed some |
| 31 |
of the discussion on -dev and even that didn't help the news item and I |
| 32 |
sort of had a general idea of what it was about. If I wasn't already |
| 33 |
somewhat aware of it, that news item wouldn't have been very little help. |
