Well, David, I tried to be as nice as possible with my comment about the 
wait, which is why I said I understand it's not easy to manage a program 
like this, and get it going. So I'm thinking that the (gasp!) crap is 
uncalled for. Again, I know it's a tough thing to find the time. I also 
am sure that it would not have been difficult to decide on and publish a 
date saying 'notifications will be sent out by <date>', so that 
everything is not a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.
