Yes, of course...  And I'll give an update once I catch up enough
to rebuild things.

I've put what I *think* I've compiled into a module up at
https://NOSPAM.dydnds.dk/hacks/
just to get it out there.  I haven't even looked at it yet to
see if it's fit for public viewing -- I'll try to clean it up
and recompile things Real Soon Now.

Ah, I hate deadlines -- well, at least, I'm hoping that this time
I'll be mostly online until then, instead of once every month or
two.  Well, look at the above URL that I'll try to keep full of
my latest hacking endeavours, so long as I'm able to be online,
and feel free to ignore the ugliness and use it as a basis for
something to add to 4.11 ...

(I can't guarantee I'll be able to be online past this coming
sunday, or even until then, but I'll do my best given the
circumstances, just so you don't expect too much from me, and
my apologies about this)


thanks
