The traffic is so low that openjade-devel is the preferred mailing list.
No point in spreading the messages even thinner!

Rather strangely, HEAD is way being the opensp1_5 branch. If you want to
get it from CVS use the "-r opensp1_5" branch. There will be one or two

to date... just haven't found the two or three hours it will take yet!
