Oh, absolutely, if I were going to patch the main trunk to BOA.  I was
just putting that out there for people working with wxPython 2.9 and
up, not patching BOA itself.

I promise to be careful about versions when I do production-ready BOA
patches...

For me, I'm okay with pinning a minimum version on BOA so that we
don't have to support versions of wxPython back to the stone-age,
which would just bloat Boa with "if-blocks" all over the place.

For me, all of this is academic until AT THE VERY LEAST we set up a
repository somewhere for new code commits (I'm still pulling for
Mercurial).

I'd also like SOME kind of blessing from Riaan.  Even though GPL lets
us fork this code, I'd hope it'd be done in a way that respects the
ENORMOUS work of the original author.  His lack of reaction to this
current turn of events makes me wonder if he's even reading this list
anymore.

I am about 2 weeks away from being able to provide the repository on a
TEMPORARY basis (to get us started).  I'd say we give Riaan until Dec.
15 to give us SOMETHING of a reaction before forking it without him.
Even THAT makes me feel icky, but progress must be made.

Chris.
