He's our adorable scamp of a mascot.

Omni, I have no plans to change the documentation structure I'm working on (vergeDoc 3 and the vergeFAQ to complement the also in-progress publically visible Manual), but the documentation system allows you to create your own docs. Go to town.

I SO saw that coming. ...not to say that it isn't tempting to form an outline or two in the head for this stuff...

McGrue: Got it. Who knows, maybe you'll see some of this stuff...especially since I can't bring myself to program inbetween the day job, I might write something...
