I'll be less than useful Tuesday and Wednesday next week, as I'm 
managing a bit of development work by our VAR, and starting Thursday, 
I'll be offline at the Edmonton Folk Fest (John Mayall, Gypsy Kings, 
Duke Robillard . . .) until Monday the 8th.  Would you or James look 
after the countdowns for me, please?  I'll try and run some regtests for 
James while I'm at the office, if there are candidates.  For now, I'll 
remind the late pushers off-list and try to focus on a GOP PROP for 
patch handling.  It's looking like it might need to be several parts, 
because there are large social implications viz. the GOP 7 discussion as 
well as technical ones: I gather Guido is moving to subversion for 
Rietveld, for example.


Cheers,
Colin
