I also apologize for my stream-of-consciousness comments that

more tactfully, making my respect more clear.
Wow, you think that maybe "Ugh" might not be all that flattering a
comment? Perhaps there has been some progress afterall. Don't
worry, nobody has really noticed it for a decade and, if the
cyclical nature of this sort of thing holds, after all the fuss
over the timeline it will return to its obscurity until someone
else needs a fallow project to bash.
I believe my no was very clear. No wiki. I'm not a big fan of them
to begin with and certainly not in this context.
I'll welcome updates.
I'll welcome fixed links and html.
I'll welcome new content.
If anything comes from that which, again, as my cynical assessment
has proven time and again that such will not be forthcoming, I'll
entertain further ideas.

Elaine,
I offered you a very thorough apology. Are you going to accept it
and move on, or continue to flame me?
Chris
