Just want to say thanks to Andrew for his continued efforts on this -
it's really appreciated.
Also sorry to Si for missing his message, but things are hectic over
here in Germany so we'll have to talk when I get back (potentially early
- i.e. before the end of the week).
Cheers,
Barry

Sylvian,
In this case, it is possible to have:
* The current project become the cashew-s-engine or something similar
* A new project, cashew-s-editor, licensed under the dual EPL/GPL, with
three of the mailing lists from the current project (the ones beginning
cashew-s-editor).
Let me know what you think,
Cheers,
