I'm glad my heartfelt outpouring of emotion is self-indulgent rubbish. I don't really care what you think either, as far as that goes. I've had it up to here with criticism. It strikes me as just deliciously ironic that here I am making that statement to you. Isn't the irony just palpable? It's glorious. Maybe we should talk about you taking your project back. Seriously, I'm obviously sick of this albatross, and there's nobody better to hand the keys to than one of the original founders. If you'll assume responsibility for keeping this thing alive from now on, I'll be content to go out with that release I just published. > It's in fine shape.

There haven't ever been enough in the way of donations or corporate sponsorship to pay for any real developer time, but if we had a budget into the tens of thousands of US dollars, that might actually pay for something worthwhile. -- D.
