Thanks for your feedback on Quantian 0.3.9.1. I made a follow-up release
0.3.9.2 based on the same clusterKnoppix pre-release -- see the usual

        http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/quantian.html

for the links to the iso images at U of Washington and U of Wisc/Madison.

0.3.9.2 adds (in alphabetical order)

 o ent, a test program for random number generators
 o felt, an finite element package
 o gap-character-tables to complete the gap cas
 o giac, another cas; the package also includes the x11 frontend xcas
 o ipe, a drawing/graphics editor
 o kile, a KDE environment for LaTeX
 o lush, a Lisp numerics shell
 o mpb, the MIT Photonic Bands
 o rpy, an interface to from Python to GNU R
 o tcl/tk extra widget packages iwidgets4, bwidget, tktable
 o texmacs-fonts, but it looks like texmacs still re-computes fonts
 o wajig, a simplied/unified Debian package management frontend
 o x12a, the US Census x-12-arima time series tool (used by GNU Gretl)

but also removes

 o grass (88mb before grass data is added, Debian package outdated, newer
   package no longer on website)
 o telnetd-ssl as there was some configuration error; ssh if course still
   included

0.3.9.2 is as before based on Klaus' 2003-09-05 Knoppix release, kernel
2.4.22, and openmosix for 2.4.22.

Next, I will use the now released clusterKnoppix 3.2_2003-09-05_cl1 to make
a test release 0.3.9.3 -- this will include gomd and chpox which Wim added.
Either 0.3.9.3 (or, if needed) a bug-fix release 0.3.9.4 should then turn
into Quantian 0.4. I hope to have 0.3.9.3 out by Tuesday.

Thanks,  Dirk
