[X-SW] Moire X v2.0 released, feedback would be appreciated

[Peter Saint James]

	Okay, here's your first feedback.

	You sent this message without even mentioning what Moire does.  When  
I have seen this behavior, I have found that the sender of such  
messages does not think from the message recipient's viewpoint.  Any  
product that person might produce would also probably follows the  
same pattern: it's not designed or documented from the user's viewpoint.

	You would be wise to start this message all over again.  Introduce  
your subject in a polite way that does not assume knowledge the  
recipient is not likely to have or that they have nothing else to  
think about than you and your product.  Before you do that, you might  
do well to look at your software, especially the documentation, and  
see if it needs the same treatment.  Better yet, have someone else do  
it who knows nothing about the program and see if they understand it.
