    Special note for Mark: It would make you the "Less Cute Co-Maintainer of Things Stable

    And for everyone wanting to grab the editorial:

          As you know from last week's belated AWN, NYORP, the AbiServer ran out of swap space and halted CVS commits for awhile. As you also know, that only stopped hacking on the latest and greatest commits, but not on what already existed.

          Geeks around the world are awaiting the release 1.0.3, but they're even more interested in The Matrix Reloaded; however, not even Neo can surpass the greatest sequel already in production: AbiWord II: The Wrath of Dom. AbiWord was marooned on a deserted server. A new project brings life to file formats. A new project brings death to other word processors. AbiWord has been freed...and wants revenge.... Coming this October, the first previews of AbiWord II: The Wrath of Dom, The developer's release: 1.1.1. See dom's pectorals for a total 48KiloBytes thoughout the project*. More in the mailing list.

          Final note for the acronym happy, when reporting a problem, don't use them unless they're a file format or widely known within the community; I won't point any fingers or link to any discussions, but it does speed up response time. IIRC, that's more of the BOFH and PHB pseudo-buzzword-compliant "paradigm."
