Danny, I agree and your negative tone (if any) is justified. After all, many (?) people apparently took a break without
informing the list, myself included. I personally feel I have no excuse for not working on the Digest a few weeks and feel a
bit ashamed about it. Even though my master's programme started during the first week of September, I have no part-
time job at the moment so I have plenty of free time. The problem is that I didn't give the Digest sufficient priority.
I'm not sure if I can do any work on it today or tomorrow (maybe in the evenings) but I promise I will work on it this
Saturday and Sunday to kill that backlog.
In your e-mail you ask Jos a question, but it seems you have not CC'ed him?

commits needing to be reviewed/classified, and it seems the last 2 weeks Digests are yet to be published.
