Thanks for the warm welcome, Peter! You made my day.

Also, very reassuring! Sometimes, as a new guy you don't know what's
going on so much unless it's right in your face.

Sounds cutting edge! Admire you toolkit devs a lot. You wouldn't
happen to have gone to Munich would you? I'm moving there in about
two weeks.

All in all, I have a really good feeling about cells-gtk, lot's of
love and intelligence here... I'm looking into doing some
development with it, one of those 'Open Source Code, Commercial
Data' apps... curious where it'll all take me :)
