MacTutor should get its editorial act together, frankly.  The previous
poster's situation is quite common, I believe. (i.e. submitting an article
getting a response that indicates subsequent publication, then having
the article languish in some editorial queue for *literally* years.)

If they don't want it, they should refuse it.  If they do want it, they
should buy it - when they accept it.  This business about "every article
will be published in time" sounds an awful lot like the six chimps who
will ultimately type out Shakespeare.  Pure crap.
