So what? If you don't want to use it, that's your loss. Meanwhile I'll
be taking advantage of a fully dynamic, easy-to-use C-based object

The DR2 CD release is due out pretty soon, perhaps by the end of the
month. Most of the Base Library is done. Display Ghostscript works
but is slow. They've got a fair bit of the GUI Library done.
If more people actually contributed to the project, instead of sitting
around whining about how useless it is, progress would be even faster..
