Sorry, I looked quickly and didn't realize just how out of date this package really was. Bug #38026 contains the 1.8.0 availability notice and was filed in May of '99. I don't think James is likely to get to this anytime soon... If this interests you, have you thought about offering to adopt it? Eric
