The good news is that so far as I know it's been in that state for a 
while now. There's a "readme" in the source tree that may help you 
experiment.

The bad news is that I'm going off the job and off the air in a few 
days, and my remaining time's solidly booked (and then some). So if you 
hit problems, there may be quite a pause before you hear back from me.

But the *good* news is that I'm on the fluid-work list, so at least you 
don't have to CC me explicitly.  :)

Best,
Ray
