	Sounds good to me as well.

	In the near future, the DNS for afterstep.org should be able to
direct any second level domain names to sites associated to AfterStep,
i.e. cvs.afterstep.org, bugs.afterstep.org, etc.  We will also gain
control of MX records in order to give developers and 'positons'
(bugs@afterstep.org) @afterstep.org email address.
	This is all pending as I wait for equipment to move to DSL with my
ISP.  Just for your information, the ability to handle this for the
community is going to cost me $500/yr.  I'm not asking for donations,
unless of course you'd like to donate. :)  If anyone would like to help
out in setting all this DNS/MX stuff up, I'd really appreciate the help.
Reading all the associated material in my busy schedule would simply delay
what I want to do, whereas there's plenty of you out there that do this
type of stuff in your sleep.
	I hope that we can get development moving again, and find several
more developers as well.  If anyone knows of people who can develop,
convince them this is the project they should be working on; and if
there's a method to communicate with idle developers oout in the
community, please post to this forum and ask for them.  I'm not a real
developer, so I don't know of these places. :)

... and now back to the regularily scheduled program
