   Okay, so not much has changed since I left.

   Agreed.  In fact I'd replace "not much" with "no" in your sentence    
   above.  I've always been a bit surprised with how poorly that network    
   did, and how little traffic there is in the Linux echo.  Quite a few    
   folks are using Linux these days but nobody seems real interested in    
   chatting about it.  Not what I would expect.   
      
   Thanks for the update.
