Re: [macker-user] Macker 0.4.1: an important bug fix

It's really great to hear that Macker's been useful for you.  It has 
been for us at my workplace (Retek), but it's very encouraging to know 
we're not the only ones.  As much as the programming is fun in itself, 
a sense that it's useful to others is very motivating!

I didn't know (or at least didn't remember) that Scott reports to you.  
You submitted some very helpful patches, but letting him contribute "on 
the clock" is no less important a contribution!

So, in general, thanks a bunch!  Keep your good feedback coming in....

Paul
