thanks. I'm quieted (what was the english word again?).

btw, I have a current update submission in my inbox that changes the
behaviour slightly of an existing widespread macro - I am willing
to accept it, however .... should a notice of such changes be sent
to a macro list? Or should acutally every commit be notified on a macro
list as well? If you ask me, every commit should be notified, unless
over-trivial commits (an auto-mailer on the cvs repo could still
send out trivial commits while only very few people would ever
subscribe to that service anyway).

cheers, guido
