I have read these article with some amusement for some time now... I
kept reading because I love humor, and because your tech talk seemed
legitimate, and I understood that. 

O.K., That's cool.

On the other hand, many have complained that your article were obtuse
and didn't belong in the news groups... I guess I can understand that.
Of course, if Dennis Ritchie were to write the same thing, he would be
tolerated for a lot more time...

Why? We have seen his code... (I own a copy of "the book" and so does
my girlfriend...)

O.K. So your code is being beta tested, with coordination by Julian...

Could we see a little? A header file? Anything?

Another problem that I see is that you happily make witty comments to
people's questions, but your answers are rarely straight forward...

Could you be straight with me, please?

Could we see your code now?

Don't get me wrong, I like the idea of progress reports from a project
group, but make sure you tell us what progress you have made...

Thank you...
