Thanks Joe, that all sounds like good stuff. On 28/10/2020, D.

Can't break... unless you scratch the CD of course. > The deterioration in the ability to > support the XO that James has mentioned was coming to a point right around > the time I started Well, I plan to turn that around and make sugarizing oneself easier, albeit tiwh different technology. I'm tempted to buy an XO on ebay when I'm rich, not only to ensure it had ongoing support but in time it's sure to become a collectible. One of the most urgent tasks seems to be to port the remaining Python2 script to Python3, as 2 is now officially retired and the main distros will be dropping it shortly, so I'm thinking of ways to be able to work on that. It's boring work, about as much fun as mincing spaghetti, but I have some experience in translating from one programming languae to another so P2->P3 with the copious guidelinesshould be relatively simple. Not that I'm looking forward to it but, hey, someone needs to do the weeding...
