Ah, was that *you*! Hobbsey mentioned something like that but I couldn't 
figure out where she was getting this information. And of course we need to 
figure out what "breaking" means in this context. 3.5.7 has produced a 
much-needed improvement in KPilot (but this is a subject for another list, 
really).

I do have spare palm pilots for potential contributors. Older ones which I 
received in turn from users who wanted to support KPilot development.

Yes. Is there any clarity on the toolchain yet? Is Reiner still working on 
docs.k.o? These are issues more for -doc than for -quality, again. But I'm 
curious.
