[Alex Leverington]

First, I'd like to not I'm not a professional programmer, so if you think I 
might know something, I probably don't :)

I didn't know about the version stuff, I haven't learned enough about CVS yet 
(and I've publicly announced that already).  I understand your concern on the 
copyright.  What should it be changed to?  I planned on redoing most everything 
in there...that's why I still left your name on there.  But...where have you 
been till now? (That wasn't in an accusing manner...I've been working on this 
and haven't gotten any feedback from you...)

Confusion and changing ideas.

Horde Auth and Perms, AND local user stuff will ALL be available and used.  
This will all be based on user set preferences, but support for all auth/user 
backend methods will be included (that's what I'm planning).

The file changes were only for infrastructure and a good idea of what is to 
come.  The WhupsPublic.php will massively change...also I copied 
WhupsPublic.php instead of copying details.php to detailsPublic.php.  Whups.php 
will be the backend for authenticated users and WhupsPublic.php will be the 
backend for Public (unauthenticated) users.  Are you starting to see what I was 
working towards?
