+Version 5.004_05 Maintenance release 5 for 5.004
+----------------
+
+"I said to my soul, be still, and wait without hope
+ For hope would hope for the wrong thing; wait without love
+ For love would be love of the wrong thing; there is yet faith
+ But the faith and the love and the hope are all in the waiting.
+ Wait without thought, for you are not ready for thought:
+ So the darkness shall be light, and the stillness the dancing."
+ -- T.S.Eliot, East Coker
