What areas are they? Maybe someone else would like to work on it. At very least we can put them in etc/TODO. I'm afraid I no longer have the correspondance with Gerd and Richard on this issue; any chance that either of you still have a copy [I think my email address at the time was stormware@get2net.dk] ? If I received the messages, I still have them. What time period should I search?
