Re: 2.4 release cycle

Hello everyone! Due to an unprecendented volume of computer problems
recently, not to mentoin a variety of other work I had to complete, I
regretfully have not been as active as I would have liked. Until
further notice, my nightly Windows builds are not going to be updated (I
have no Windows machine fast enough or trustworthy enough at the
moment), and I'm not sure when I'll be able to rejoin on the Windows end.

However, I did have some results with regard to all this stuff before
the failures.
I did manage to copy and paste together a Makefile for the linkgrammar
plugin, and I do remember that a tarball, though not the CVS, of
linkgrammar did build on my system. I never had the time to get them
working together properly, but it should not be far off.

Scroll down for more....

I likewise had been using my nightly HEAD builds, with much success. If
I get through the stuff I have to do (should be doable), I will reward
myself by making you guys a pretty 2.3 splash screen before 2.3.0. :D

Thanks!
