I'd like to reemphasize this.  I am *not* currently the primary developer
of the software in question, and I think I've pretty carefully tried to
point out whenever possible that Eric (and, at this point, Andrew) "owns" 
many, many more lines of code in that software than I do.  It is a project
that I concieved, found funding for, and have organized and administrated;
and certainly there's a good bit of code in there that I _did_ write.  But
Eric, well, to put it bluntly, hacks quite a bit more efficiently than I
do; and we owe Andrew a great debt of thanks for almost the entire client
implementation, quite a feat all by itself.
