No need to get too despondent. Not all the activity provoked by the group
appears on these pages. For example, following the announcement of the
test version of the Talis simulation software available at our ftp site,
there have been at about 8 downloads of the software. A similar number of
downloads of Athel's Mac version of vExplorer have occurred, and one or two
downloads of the PC version.
Thus there are people out there who found those two messages of interest,
even if they haven't posted an opinion of the software after getting it.
One thing that has reduced is the amount of spam; restrictions recently
imposed by commercial internet service providers and universities on access
to their mailer demons have been partly successful in choking off some of
the anonymous bulk mailings. Thus there's less to read here, but more of
it is relevant.
Another factor for those of us who teach is that this is a busy time of the
year, which is why I'm signing off......
