here's some info because Tim prefers to have this stuff on the list, as
we're talking about making nontrivial changes to devel_0_39.

well, i disagree with knuth ... we should get some code done before
renaming it ;-)

i had a brief look an the file ... seemed to be some fancy kind of pd's
gui ... but i missed some kind of introduction ... he did not post

that everyone knows, what the other ones are doing ... and that we agree
on something ...

well, as you know, i'm a fan of communication, so we should try to
discuss on the lists when doing non-trivial changes ;-)
