I'm lucky and going to spend the next days skiing, but will back with new ideas and enthusiasm after the 23C3. #robin -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFFgtJ9eVUk8U+VK0IRAkiwAJ9RRL61hwcLwh0hSOJJfVyLFhCklQCeOwWB nFTjwSW/ba23lHb+aN2nrvY= =8KoV -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
