while I agree with most of Chuq's observations and analysis of the situation,
I do see things a little more optimistic.

a) just because sites are sticking with 2.9 and refuse to upgrade, for whatever
	reason, that should / did not keep anyone from going to 2.10+, so let's
	stay optimistic and plan for 2.11, 3.0, whatever.

b) if we can't get everyone to upgrade and expect problems because of that,
	let's develop ideas how we can minimize those problems, without being
	inconsiderate to small or conservative sites, of course.

Unfortunately, I am not from this "UN*X" world and cannot be of much help in
implementing new ideas, but I feel right at home in this net-community and
would like to participate in discussions of ideas for improvements.  A good
thing is worth the time spent trying to improve it.  No, I'm not one only
willing to spend time with "talk-talk", but you would not want to wait for
me to write UN*X code, (-:.   When volunteers are needed for some work for
which I feel qualified, consider me a volunteer, and not during "office hours".

Any need to translate public domain software into a foreign language?
