I agree completely, Jan. There was a time, before Tom Davis moved to Florida, when there were constant improvements and functional enhancements to Zoot—seemed like every week or two a new version was posted. I suspect the daunting task of converting Zoot to 32-bit technology is partly what brought those enhancements to a slow crawl. I would like to think that other enhancements made possible by 32-bit technology will come along at a constant pace once the conversion is complete, but that might be wishful thinking. Either way, I think Tom has made it clear that the next version of Zoot will not be an enhanced version, just converted to 32-bit technology.
