That was one of the things I wanted to revise, which I wasn't able to. When
I wrote that line in August, I thought it was true. They're still thinking
about it, as far as I know, but I guess work on 2.0.1 is taking precedence.
Too bad- they could develop something at least as useful as the 2.0.1
upgrade, with a far smaller expenditure of resources (not that 2.0.1 shouldn't
be worked on, but I think this kind of a disk warrants a couple of engineers
for a month ot so).
