    SubjectRe: EVMS Submission for 2.5
    Since I am personally hoping for EVMSs inclusion, I just wanted to thank
    you for being constructive in pointing out specific issues so that they
    can be addressed.

    Hopefully, folks can keep from starting a religious war. This /is/
    fertile ground for one, too... Heavyweights have weighed in on all sides
    of this fence, making (md|.*Volume Manage\S+) a very contentious topic...

    I got a new shadow. I had to get rid of the other one
    -- it wasn't doing
    what I was doing.
