Sheesh.. mighty jumpy aren't we? Cliff's Mailer just quotes people's

I think that with the kind of progress that ARDI has been making recently
you should not be so hard on them. Of course, you don't seem to have noticed
the difference between 1.0 and 1.99m. To me, the differences between each
version are tremendous and well worth the praise it receives.
Cliff's response wasn't the most cheerful, but I think you are being a
little too harsh about this.
