Thanks go to the people who have been busy improving Glest with patches, mods and providing support.

Sorry, I don't know how that happened. It's fixed now.

hailstone, I just want to thank you one more time for these nice monthly issue posts!
For me they really enshure that I didn't miss something important. Thanks for your work.

[hailstone]

Thanks titi. 

[Omega]

Yes, I agree with Titi. I too must thank you for these. They cannot be easy to put together, but are exceptionally handy for people, especially if they were away for a bit and want to make sure they didn't miss anything big.
