:
	Early on Steve wrote to me asked me about my driver,
	he replied that he could no wait for my development.
	I understand his delema (sp?) this being one reason
	for QIC NEWS and NOTES (not eade yet).

	However, to state a position one way or another on
	an unseem piece of software would be fool hardy.
	Additionally with persons such as Dave Burgess involved
	with the project I am sure it will be a fine effort.

	Have a nice day.
