Good news, well apart from the dirty hack :)

yes, please. I'd appreciate that, I'm sure  Warner would too.

i think we reached agreement on the cache-handing in private email.
(the answer is: Just Do It).

re the new wscons: i like the idea of putting the arc port into the
CVS tree on a branch, so Matthias and others can help, if they wish.
But not before you think the arc code is ready.

and thanks for the update!
