Hi Gary, I have the feel to express my +1 vote but have Christian's similar worries - not sure, but maybe once [vote] successes, there should be a resolution... anyway I'm not expert on that field, I just voted following my sentiments.
PS I thought the name comes from joining 2 French words "sans" (without) and "élan" (momentum) that's the only meaning I can find, French people may can confirm :) best, -Simo http://people.apache.org/~simonetripodi/ http://simonetripodi.livejournal.com/ http://twitter.com/simonetripodi http://www.99soft.org/ On Mon, Dec 19, 2011 at 4:10 PM, Gary Gregory <garydgreg...@gmail.com> wrote: > On Mon, Dec 19, 2011 at 9:57 AM, Christian Grobmeier > <grobme...@gmail.com> wrote: >> +1 for Image.
