You're not expecting me to actually explain a joke to you, right?

Just to clarify: The intention was not to poke fun at FreeCard. They're simply the most well-known project that still has a web-site to point at.

J.P. looked through you. :-P

So the joke was, that some file you sneakily glued together and uploaded in 5 minutes is not a Technology Preview (of what technology?), and that in fact FreeCard is still not ready for primetime yet, or what? And? Maybe I'm just the wrong target group to see what's so funny about jumping the gun on some poor little project's technology preview. ;-(

Should have announced that you installed Windows on you Mac mini... Or that you cleaned up the mess in your room... Or that you converted these FreeCard guys to switch from Eclipse to NetBeans... THAT would have been funny. :-)

The Home "stack" seems to be a picture of the first card; nothing works...
