Unless Ulrich and I are lying about our implementation status, which I doubt that is the case :-), we're not doing too bad.

For example, there are things for us that are a higher priority than others, and I suspect Ulrich to have his own list of priorities. The features that are high priority for both of us are not at risk, but the other ones may be at risk. That's why we need the test suite ASAP, to be able to compare. -- Benoit mailto:benoit@itedo.com LH> Let's discuss. LH> -Lofton.
