While I can never be sure when someone is kidding -- for example, I still
think that HP is kidding about killing the HP3000 -- and thus I'm not sure
about the seriousness of Denis's comments, I do take his basic comment
seriously. As a result, I've just changed the word "kill" to "close". It's
more polite and much more specific, and it rids the text of a bit of jargon,
which is always to the good.
The newly worded version will be available for download in a little bit. I
won't change the date or the version number as a result of changing one word,
but I do think that Denis' comment has some substance to it, whether he does
or not :-).
