Yes, it is boring. I had hoped it would have gained a bit more substance over 
the last months ;)

No. Of course _I_ think MDI is broken. But my answer always was: "I don't care 
enough about MDI to put it in, but if anyone cares, he is welcome to put it 
in". And I always thought that there would be enough people who care about it 
that it would be added instantly. Strangely enough, until now only Harry 
seems to be interested in putting MDI into gideon.

Well, gideon is alpha software, so this is nothing that troubles me.

This is what I suspected. All this boils down to is "MDI, MDI". Ok. This seems 
to be a low price :-)

Bye,
Matthias.
