17.10 has plenty of room for improvement. The problem has been "me" and not
"Crafty".  Thursday a week ago I had to make the third visit to my local
hospital for surgery.  I returned home Sunday night.  I haven't been out
much although I am certainly 'chomping at the bit' to get out now...

However, that is a huge time-loser, as I am teaching two courses, and had to
make arrangements to have the classes covered, give exams, and so forth, and
now I have about 4 days left to grade everything.

This simply explains "part" of my very busy schedule for the past 2 months.  I
have been working on the Beowulf cluster, managing a new firewall, setting up a
new computer lab, etc.  Which means that my time for Crafty has been fairly
limited.  17.11 will be out fairly soon, and hopefully late this summer (after
other 17.x versions are out) a new 18.0 will show up that will run on clusters.

I try hard, believe me.  But sometimes mother nature, UAB, or my wife/kids have
other ideas about how I get to spend my time.  :)
