So far, he _has_ been right every time.

I don't think anyone has the power to "muzzle" Andrew, and I wouldn't want
to even if I could.  Andrew is free to work on whatever part of Y he
chooses, as is everyone else.  I will merge what I want, when I want.

What I do with my free time is, quite frankly, none of your damn business.

There's actually very little to discuss at the moment.  There is enough in
the code to see how everything fits together.  It's mostly a case of
ripping out the bodged code that I wrote in a rush to meet the tight
deadline and replacing it with something that is robust.  Andrew's already
done that to the network protocol, object system and keyboard handling.
I've made some improvements to the buffers though I'm stil not happy with
it.  Still remaining to be fixed are font handling, module
loading/unloading/reloading, and themes.

And please, everyone, read http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html
before you post questions.

Regards,

  Mark.
