One of the bugs should be fixed as of the TOT last night.  There was a
second change that was mostly-redundant-but-apparently-more-than-that that
caused the behavior Greg saw, but it's gone now.  There was some brief
confusion over which change should go and which should stay, but it should
be resolved now. =)

The major problem this should fix is the problem with quitting being away
after a while.  It may tangentially fix some other things, but we'll see
about that.  I think the bug which makes you idle after very short periods
of time still remains, but I hadn't been able to build Fire since last night
(something about Jabber being missing?), so I can't tell.

These are my biggest problems with Fire too, so hopefully I will be able to
keep working on them.  I have very little time to spare for side-projects
such as this, but with luck I can poke at it from time to time...

Later,
