By the way, returning to the subject implied by the line
marked SUBJECT above :-) we do have some good news, the
initial beta testing of JGNAT has been going well, and we
need relatively few tweaks before we have a distributable
version, so it should not be too long now before you can
kick the tires.

(and I must say that I am NOT hoping that someone will say
 "great, this doesn't work at all, ACT has finally seen the
  light and is not waiting till software works before it
  is distributed for us to mess with." :-)
