Just curious...

Doctor John had found a way to correct Zeger's Greeble but has not posted a 
new version. How are things going on that front?

If you mean Doctor John's corrections. He is not too well and is not 
following the news groups.
I will ask him when I next speak to him but don’t hold your breath.

May be you have overlooked a posting by Thomas de Groot (17.10.2006).

Sad to read about Doctor Johns poor health. Best wishes from me as well.

Best regards,
