Team linux did quite well, I think coming in second only to the Mac team
(which consists mostly of 64 bit RISC procs, and even then, when that
client is running the machine is bogged, ie click... wait 3 secs... ah now
my window is in working on coming into the foreground:)  Anyway, the
bovine team has plunged straight into the 64 bit effort!  Since
involvement has really exploded lately, they figure they may be able to
slove it almost as fast if they get the same participation.  I already
have the new client, rc564, running.  If anyone wants to get involved, I
would be happy to help with the few questions that may come up as yo
uinstall and configure the very straightforward client.
