In fact, the primary work that chris and I hacked on was in fact
a bugfix for the MARC editor, not a new feature. This applies to
several other things I've worked on as well.

It's also true that I have added what could be considered 'minor'
features to rel_2_2. The main consideration being that the work
required in updating a customer with all of the liblime customizations
was far exceeding my resources. Creating several new system preferences
has enabled me to keep all customers on a stock CVS release rather than
maintain my own seperate repository.

Of course, I fully intend to port all the improvements I've made
to HEAD ...

I will only work on HEAD, unless a customer requires a bugfix (like
they did with the MARC editor).

Cheers,
