Finance::Quote 0.18 is now out the door, and available and advertised via CPAN, Freshmeat, Sourceforge, etc. Now that we have a reasonably stable library out the door we can start working on new features. (Like currency conversion or a decent OO re-write.)

Ian
I must apologise for saying that Ian purchased a ludicrously expensive lockable sun-roof on wheels because his old car lost that 'new' smell. Apparently Ian's car was a couple of years old when he purchased it, and he had been spraying it with a can of "new car smell" to keep it smelling new.

I now know that Ian purchased a ludicrously expensive lockable sun-roof on wheels because his can of "new car smell" ran out. *grin*

In Ian's favour, he did climb the Green 15 out at hardrock. I'm very impressed.

Diplomacy
The first game starts shortly. We almost have a full compliment of players signed up.
