Yes, I'm sure once we move the project somewhere a summary will be in order to bring anyone up to speed that comes along.

I've been wondering about that. I see Petr in his e-mail and pekr in the signature. But now it dawns on me that pekr may be "pe" joined with "kr" as a short version of his full name. How about it Petr, care to explain the correct name usage for you? :-) I do apologize in advance, I think I've got other folks using Pekr as well. :-( Thanks, Rod.

yes, exactly. When I connected to the internet for the first time - 1995/96, it was time when VisCorp negotiated amiga deal, I was invited to chat into IRC. I installed Netscape IRC client and it wanted some short name - aka nick. Do you know the situation when you have to set some password, and all of a sudden you can't find something suitable :-) So I just took first two letters from my first name, and another two from my last name ....

heh, well. I just hope you visit IRC from time to time. I know lot of folks by their nick names - uF0, Cyphre, Exie etc etc. And sometimes, even when IRC channel meets in reality, we call one each other by our nick names :-) -pekr-

Hi Petr, One thing I'd wondered about: Is "Petr" a Czech version of "Peter"? -- Carl Read
