Maybe it is time to make a formal release.  Not much development has 
happened in quite a while and we should probably make a release with what 
we have.  I don't have the means to do this fully.  Scott, what is your 
opinion?  I can't make Windows binaries (nor do I have the inclination or 
even Windows).  I would be happy to put together a source tarball and a 
Slackware package.  Can someone make an RPM?

I just noticed that the only releases that show on sourceforge are for 
Windows ( http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=27533 ). 
When did that happen?  No source package?  If not, that isn't very good I 
don't think.

if you want to understand why that is, there are many good books on
the design of operating systems. please pass them along to redmond
when you're done reading them :)
