Hi Simon,

I assume, you wanted to post this to owl-users (but mistyped the list
address as @owl instead of @lists), so I'll reply CC'ing the list.

Neither.  It's a piece of work on Owl that is waiting for a volunteer
to be completed.  This has been once discussed on owl-devel and Pedro
Inacio wanted to do it, but I don't think he ever did.

This work involves certain updates to the owl-cdrom package and more.

It is possible that I will just do it myself eventually, but so far I
have too many higher priority things to do and those I definitely can't
delegate to someone else.  So I leave this one for others.
