Some people seem to prefer to discuss a few subtleties of
experimental macros directly with me - emails being sent
to the mailing list do end up in a different email folder
of mine. I did hope the wording was pointing to that to

wording  stronger until all macros have pushed to the
savannah cvs - there are still some open details about
that at the moment, ye know ;-)
