This customer is funding new development of my free Jisp (Java Indexed
Serialization Package) package, in conjunction with writing a vertical
market app that uses Jisp as its database engine.

What's maddening is going from Java to C++ to Fortran 95 in one day (like
today); sometimes, I think I'll never get the semi-colons right! ;)

Then I will continue to ignore 1.1, and stick with 2.0.
