	Well, I'd like to thank the guys in the Omni Group for doing this excellent  
piece of work.  They are indeed going unthanked for this great software, and  
for the fact that they are giving it out largely free!  This is good stuff!   
I'd challenge anybody to come up with something better themselves before they  
complain.  If it has bugs, big deal.  It's free!  Work with them to get them  
fixed.  I personally was excited to see the new version, and was not  
disappointed one bit.
	I was hit just as hard as anybody by the expiration problem.  My copy of  
OmniWeb died on the evening before the due date of a reasonably large WWW  
project was to be delivered to a client.  But wjs responded right away with  
telling me where a (then still unreleased) hidden copy of OmniWeb 0.9.x was.   
And it worked to get the job done, and was extra cool compared to the old  
version.  We ought to thank them for working as hard as they have been on  
their OmniWeb project!  I know that they are extra busy at McCaw, and I'm  
sure they have zillions of other things to do (Including Doom II! :-), so we  
should be glad that we got it at all.
	I'd like to second Dr. Bamberger (Hello!) and say that we should all stop  
complaining.  I'll step off my soapbox now :-).  Have fun!!
