Hi john

I would ***really*** like to thank you for all the good building bricks 
you are creating
for Smalltalk. Two days ago in 1h30, we wrapped a complete system, run 
SUnit and visualsed the result in CC (HotDraw-based). This is good to 
be able to rely on excellent big abstractions.

We are starting to really use SmaCC:
	- for our bibtex tool,
	- for SmallWiki (whose goal is to be dialect independent: Swazoo, 
SmaCC, SiXX, (SeaSide)),
	- for our Java plugging for Moose,
	- and soon for our languages experiments.

So I just wanted to thanks you. That's the way to go. I hope you will 
find job, because what you are doing is great.

Stef

I should say that I like your licensing schema.
