Call me when it's ready for testing, then maybe I'll say "wow". At this point, the news is simply that Matz has endorsed YARV. So, hearty congrats to the YARV developers! I asked once before if we would have to wait until Xmas 2005 for a real YARV-based implementation. Looks like the answer is a tentative "yes", but there are still seven months to go. -- Glenn Parker | glenn.parker-AT-comcast.net |
