I always knew about contrib but as I haven't been missing any feature in the core distribution (well - actually I've been missing PL/R until it came up - but as you know it's not in contrib ;-) I never found time to dig into the contrib directories and README's. Now that I did I'm pretty amazed about the nice features I've never thought about. > Further, you know we don't finish the docs until beta. Ever. > Whenever you want - but do it. I also highly appreciate Albert's Idea/Work. Regards, Brar
