    Curious, why the stretch of dom's prior "release early, release often"
    plans?

    Curious, why the exception? It's not like others dont require third
    party stuff (like aik). and the app will (should, this is after all
    1.1.x) run even if a plugin is attempted at start with unresolved
    symbol/cant find my library errors.

    On the sunny side up, I should (let's all pray now...) have a little
    time to get back to fixing the solaris build rules. I've been
    neglecting that for some time now but the 8th gives me a little leeway.
