I can't remember if we got this or not... then again I'm on Benadryl =
right now
so I'm barely conscious :)

Version 0.3.4 will hopefully be coming soon. I have the disk stats =
working and
Scott has battery stats working. I kinda-sorta have a screen mode written=
 for
disk stats (battery stats is completely done, actually :), but then I =
moved so
now I have to unpack and shtuff.

Perhaps I should just give what I have to Scott and let him put 0.3.4 up.

Version 0.4.0 will be longer in coming. I would _REALLY_ like to have a
working version of it before the end of June. That all depends on how =
quickly
I get unpacked and how much time I can devote to LCDproc.
