Given that I don't know what else is on your plate (except for some tiny parts), that's kind of hard to state. I *have* asked for it for years... >> Yeah.

I've corrected that now.

I have said many times that I don't consider it open enough if it's only published "every now and then". Mainly in discussions about *other* products, of course, but in this relation as well. And I have said that it's a problem referring people to a repository that's not up to date when they ask for how things are built and/or intended to work. >> But in treating people the same - I just asked Scottie to make sure >> that they're not available just when asked for, but all the time.

If getting it done properly is just on your list, that's good enough for me - since clearly it wasn't on your list earlier, even though I thought it was. -- Magnus Hagander Me: http://www.hagander.net/ Work: http://www.redpill-linpro.com/
