Hello,

I completely agree with what has been said here.

There has not been much work on KWQ recently for two reasons; it is in my o=
pinion more or less feature complete and stable, and due to other interests=
 and obligations I have had very little time to devote to it.

I am open to any suggestions or decisions regarding the future of these pro=
grams the larger edu team find appropriate.

Thanks,
Peter
