At least I sincerely hope so.
I wrote a super firendly mail to George concerning this *before* I put
it up the GPE list. Best what George has to do afterwards is to create
new FUD. So it is not me or us that, if any, cause any trouble :(

I am pretty much aware of what we owe hh.org and so I will not say
*anything* negative about anything in it's vicinity - also not about or
to George. I know exactly what would happen.
If you are interested I can forward the (long) mail I sent to George
then you probably know what I mean.

Very fine for me!

I just had the impression that moving from CVS to CVS would be easier...
