(I may get us a web page up here soon with this status freely shown plus
the code I'm currently working that hasn't been committed to CVS.)

Ok - Most of this can easily be done with moving code from the current
DataTypes Library we have. Be re-organized much of the code into a
different class approach. The code itself looks to me like there are few
small differences, but nothing too big. I've just been too busy to
really dig in. 

If you guys want a piece of this pie, send a mail to the list, so we
don't have three people working on the same thing. If you are stuck -
again ask on our list. That's what it's there for. 

You cannot put anything into CVS now - but our structure has changed:
/open-beos/openbeos/sources/os/kits/translation

If you want something posted there drop it to me in an email.

On another note: I will be gone for the next around two weeks. (Next
Wednesday, and until the 18th or 19th or March). That is the plan at
this point, I'll try to check my email but I can't promise anything.

I have the code for the BBitmap Class, I think completed, yet unposted.
I hope to get that up in CVS before I leave. 

Oh, and please - even when I'm gone post something weekly to the list or
to me directly (sage@xxxxxxxx or mastersage@xxxxxxxxxxxx) so I know you
are around. I give Michael a weekly status report :)
