Being busy in general, as well as other problems (usw4.freebsd.org availability) have slowed us to a crawl for the last few months. That may actually be for the better, because a few things probably ought to be re-evaluated before moving forward. Right now, my todo list looks like this: - coordinate packaging ideas with Alex and libh - put cvs server into a usable state - properly set up commit mail - apply getArgs patch (thanks Chris!) - translate ideas and plans from memory to sgml - rip apart the client library source - write client library I'm not sure what Murray is up to at the moment, but he's probably busy with the next release of the handbook. The server is usable enough to give something to test client library code against, but eventually needs the ability to provide items from a prior moment in time as well as whatever is current.
