I'm glad I read the bug discussion before this discussion. 1. jwz is sorta famous and cool, I think. I've heard of him before this (and I'm not exactly hip!).

I'm glad I read the bug discussion before this discussion.
1. jwz is sorta famous and cool, I think. I've heard of him before this (and I'm not exactly hip!).
2. Debian is well known, too! /understatement
3. jwz put a timebomb in xscreensaver.
4. The timebomb displays a message if current date > source code date + 18 months.
5. The timebomb has been there for at least three years. See https://github.com/Zygo/xscreensaver/blame/88cfe534a698a0562e81345957a50714af1453bc/driver/prefs.c#L1663 https://github.com/Zygo/xscreensaver/blame/88cfe534a698a0562... (Unofficial repo)
6. I'm with Debian on this one. Sorry, jwz.
7. I really, really, really like xscreensavers and want it to stay in Debian! :(
