Hi Rinaldi,

I replied to G. Bevan-Pritchard with some advice and a bit of news.  I
didn't copy the list though, because I planned an announcement for the
very near future.  Now I feel obligated to at least provide a teaser...

It's true.  I am currently putting the finishing touches on TkDesk 2.0.  It
will likely go through a brief period of beta testing before I release it.
Lest your heart leap from your chest in anticipation, please keep in mind
that the changes are not major... yet.  The changes more or less follow the
roadmap included in the development section of the home page:
http://tkdesk.sf.net.  Still, better than nothing, I hope.  I'll provide
more details soon.

Take care,

	Chris
