I was going to send a pointer to the preceding (lexically following) entry to David Mason, long-time Emacs user and (former?) GNOME project person. But his web site's been replaced by a "coming soon" page, and his Livejournal site (to get the url of which I had to dig his previous web site out of Google cache) doesn't display his email address anywhere. I'd try his old Red Hat address, but I think it's a matter of principle now.

On the genreal subject of hiding email addresses, ifile has now classified 81550 non-spam messages and 637 spam messages. It gets about a couple wrong each day - almost always spam that it lets through into non-spam. This is a massively better result than spamassassin already. So far so good.
