Hey Damian!

Sorry, in my nearsightedness, having only ever had used Stem for parsing, I
had not realised that enough of the control protocol was implemented in Stem
to do this without using txtorcon!  Please feel free to reword the posting (or
suggest a change) that you think would more accurately reflect this.

Also, I would be delighted to co-mentor with you (and also meejah, if the
intern decides to go the txtorcon route), that sounds great!

Best,
--
