Well, life is short, and the number of Free Software projects to work
on is infinite.  But I'm currently doing some rather interesting Gnus
hacking, and I'll have to learn about decorating Gnus buffers anyway
-- so I might end up doing that.

(In case anyone is interested: together with Z. Landau, we're
integrating the Darcs version control system with Gnus.  And in case
anyone is still listening -- any pointers to examples of code that
decorates summary buffers?)

DomainKeys (the nonstandard ancestor of DKIM) is being deployed by
Gmail and Pobox, which is a significant number of users.  DKIM is
being worked on, but last time I checked the spec had some rather
serious bugs due to the conflicting goals of securing mail and
permitting mailing list exploders to add random crap in messages.

The technically correct term is ``the way of USEFOR''.
