-(The above list should cover all the bases of major Linux distributions and variants thereof; I might add a dedicated Debian test later but other than that... suggestions welcome. Kubuntu 64-bit is my main system and the main development platform; the Windows builds are cross-compiled from here. And yes, this also implies I seriously consider a Plan 9 port of the library using [libcontrol](http://plan9.bell-labs.com/magic/man2html/2/control), though I'm guessing this will blow up in my face due to the conflict between libthread and Go's runtime.)

-Contributions are welcome. File issues, pull requests, approach me on IRC (pietro10 in #go-nuts; andlabs elsewhere), etc. Even suggestions are welcome: while I'm mainly drawing from my own GUI programming experience, everyone is different.
+Contributions are welcome. File issues, pull requests, approach me on IRC (pietro10 in #go-nuts; andlabs elsewhere), etc. Even suggestions are welcome: while I'm mainly drawing from my own GUI programming experience, everyone is different. I have received emails, however I am not likely to see those right away, so I don't suggest contacting me by email if your communication is urgent.
 
 If you want to dive in, read implementation.md: this is a description of how the library works. (Feel free to suggest improvements to this as well.) The other .md files in this repository contain various development notes.
