Howard, this is really cool stuff.  They've been busy.  I'm going to
have to install the phoebe beta on a spare box, to play with it.

It's probably all Python code.  They've been cranking out lots of neat
little Python-based utilities:  8.0, for example, has a console version
of their printconf utility, absence of which used to drive me crazy on RH
servers.  (Setting up print support on them without X11 was messy.)
