261327 -        as far as making it into a magazine.  Sorry, but I feel rung
261328 -        out and am making all sorts of mistakes.  Have to look after

290416 -    7.  It turns out that the influence of Chris Dent is great, and
290417 -        that the WordPress blogging tool has had a purple numbering
290418 -        plugin since 11.2004.

290423 -    8.  There's also a plugin that looks as though it might do
290424 -        click-step.  I'm looking into that.
290426 -         ..
290427 -    9.  I'm also looking at a version control project that someone
290428 -        started on and took to a fairly complete stage, but didn't
290429 -        finish.
290431 -         ..
290432 -   10.  There seem to be several WP plugin lists around, but the one
290433 -        I'm looking at here was

310614 -        literacy.  Your letter today shows the dilemma of limited time,

310632 -    3.  Retiring Fleabyte may be the answer, and certainly giving

310634 -        might envision Fleabyte or a progeny publishing monthly,
