Harold,
I'm sorry, I never meant to unload additional work onto you. In previous
messages regarding berkley db, you mentioned that you were going to stick
to X packages, so I assumed you meant the packages you were already
working on for X. Apparently this is not the case, which is OK. I'm glad
you cleared things up for everyone.
Cheers,
