Peter,

        A few private questions. 1) How technical in the language crafting art
does one need to be to head the group? 2) Do you feel that OOVHDL is
really going to go somewhere if we continue developing it or are other
efforts going to subsume it - what's your dispassionate feeling?

Thanks,
Bob
