Wow, very nice job Andy. I expect what we want to do is integrate this  
into the documentation page

http://pythoncard.sourceforge.net/documentation.html

perhaps as a new section Overview before Getting Started. There might  
be a better section name, but it should be clear from the section or  
title of the article that it is a background and overview of PythonCard  
rather than the "jumping in" articles in the Gatting Started section.  
Inserting a few screenshots might not be a bad idea either, since they  
are already on the web site, but that would change the original paper,  
so it is up to you.

What was the response to the paper and presentation at the conference?
