Bill,  I think your comment about not being too responsive about bugs and
support is a little unfair. I have spent MANY hours on the telephone with
people about code problems ( mostly ports to other operating systems ) and,
yes, bugs in the code. I try to fix them as soon as I am able to do so. You
see, I do have to earn a living to support my family so I can't devote all
of the time that I would like to on the cod. If I were able to do so, I
definately would. Many of the "bugs" that are reported may be bugs on other
ports of Unix; however, because I don't have the equipment to check it out
on their hardware/software, I have to rely on other inputs as fixes.
 
If I have not supported the code as much as others would like me to do so,
I am sorry. Many of the "support calls" are long distance and, to be honest
with you, I really do not want to pay for the call.
