There was a bunch of discussion at the time.  Apparently it was
mostly in IRC? as I can't find anything on the mailing list.  Maybe
it was the LLG Member's list, dunno.

Anyways.  Many things were said.  Many promises were made.  Some
BPFK work was actually done.  But not much.  And then it basically
stopped.  And here we are.

If you want stuff done around here, I'm afraid you have to do it
yourself.

is "na nei".   My personal page: http://www.digitalkingdom.org/rlp/

I wouldn't be surprised if my no-longer-very-recent formatting efforts of the BPFK sections was the most recent effort on that front. Which reminds me, I really need to finish doing that....
