(you can submit them, but i won't look at them until i understand the current code better, which could take awhile, depending on my brain and the vagaries of its immediate environment.) feel free to distribute this message widely for about a month or two. i hope to make a bugfix-only edb-1.22 release by then. after that, we will see what happens. happy hacking, thi
