Why it takes so long to include modules in moonbase

I neither format mail nor use HTML. This is raw text. Sometimes use newline 
character (via return key) as you do. My e-mail client does word warp if line 
is longer than 78 characters but this is expected Internet Standard. In last 
post, in a source I found =20 and =3D. I will try to investigate why this 
tags appear. It looks it is connected with wrapping line.

BTW Sorry for such bugs:

-Now, in moonbase the internal caption is UPDATED=3D20050525

Mime-attachments are created by OpenPGP when e-mail is signed. The signature 
appears only as attachment in M$ Outlook Express software. M$ breaks every 
standard which is not created by M$. In linux mail clients OpenPGP signature 
is decoded correctly and do not appears at all as attachment - instead there 
is information that message is signed, signature is correct so message was 
not changed by someone else. Few other people on this list use OpenPGP 
digital signature to sign e-mails so I also use it. Change e-mail client from 
M$ one to linux one to enable signature decoding/verification or tell 
everybody to stop sending signed e-mails so I will stop doing it also.

Yes I know and understand. But there is few other source based distros. Making 
lunar development fast it could be No.1 in the World. I personally think it 
is No.1 but other people must be convinced by fresh and large modules number.

P.S If you send something to mail list do not send CC: to me. I'm subscribed 
to lunar mail list.

BTW Nice to meet you elaine :-) When I was young I also was playing in frikin 
bozo  - this is so childish game. We was making funny things on webpages 
comment tags at beginning later in x86 asm with friends. But now I and my 
friedns grow up and do not play in such games. If you want I can continue 
this game X-elaine. Oh boy I'm too old for doing this... CU next e-mail.

greets,
