Didn't we already all agree on that before the conference?

Given that this is the one thing a lot of people were hoping would come 
out as a result of the conference, I can hardly think of a more 
constructive use for Walter's conference time.  I think it would have 
been ok for you and the Tango team to monopolize a little more.  :-)

 From this end, unfortunately the responses are sounding a lot like a 
nice way of saying "nothing happened and nothing is going to happen any 
time soon". :-(
