	Well you're asking the wrong guy.  But I'd guess that since the
code is in the tree, some attempt was made at getting the occasional
snapshot out.  But I do know that the usership was very small, and
the developership amounted to one or two people with boxes in the corner
that were not often turned on.  Not my definition of "active."

	This sounds like an attempt at personal insult.  This has
no place here.
