I would love to implement ZNG if I could possibly find any commercial
case for it in my current job (or indeed find a different job where
that was doable).  But if I'm going to give anything like a reasonable
amount of my time to ZOOM, ZeeRex, Zthes and zSQLgate, then I just
can't afford to launch into yet another "free time" project.

So the answer is: no, I don't have any immediate plans to implement
ZNG.  But I want to make sure that it's sane, so that when my
circumstances change and I _can_ make an implementation, I don't end
up tearing my hair out!

As for the intensity -- I think that's just me being obnoxious :-)

I would really like to, but there is no way that I can either (A) fund
my employer to send me, or (B) pay to send myself.  Really sorry.
(But touched that you want me there :-)
