"I'm releasing 2.0a29 to keep you busy :^)"
Whew... thank goodness. I was wondering what I was gonna do with all this
free time I have. :D
****
Seriously, great job Paul... it's really coming together.
Do you think the new compiler is going to fix a lot of the "small" issues
like the crashing object list dialog, etc.?

Folks,
Sorry about the long delay twixt releases. I've been rewiring the Plan
Creation Wizard, virtually from scratch, and it's taking some effort
to make it work right. You won't see it in this release. However, when
you start the first time, you'll see a "throbbing" "PW" (Plan Wizard)
icon as a background thread hunts through your existing catalogues
constructing a database. This will stop after a few minutes (time
depending on how many catalogues you have installed, and how fast your
computer and hard disk are). You can pretty much ignore it and
continue with other stuff.
I'm releasing 2.0a29 to keep you busy :^)
Paul R.
