Dear John, my very best congratulations for your work. I have just tried the
oldest version of
AnotherLevelUp and seems to be an excellent work. Hopefully, the newest should
be terrific.

I do work at Seville University and try to move students from <<the magic world
of Oz-gates>>
to GNU/Linux, I also find of the most interest such naive, intuitive but
so-powerful desktops and
as much different from Windows as possible. In my opinion such minimalist
desktop makes user
feel better and free than full-of-icon Windows, KDE and Gnome desktops.

I also thank to Garv Austin and Thomas Adam for their kindly and fruitful
response. Glad to
know there is people loving AnotherLevel.
