1. Concerning the portability of profiles: If you copy the directory of a profile to the amsn home directory and forget to insert the new profile into the profiles file, the config.xml of the new profile gets overwritten when you enter the address manually. It shouldn't be a big thing to check if the directory and the config.xml already exist and then only insert them in the profiles and not overwrite the settings. I'll have a look at it the next days if I have some free minutes.

That's a good point, yes. Adding it to the TODO.

2. Proposal concerning the auto update function: Shouldn't we extend the auto update to be able to update files of the core? (Not for major releases, only for minor updates!) I think it would be a good thing as there are many protocol changes recently and it would help to fix minor bugs a lot faster because we are able to spread single core files instead of having to create a complete release that takes a lot of time. What do you think?

It's a good thought in theory, but in fact there might be many more changes reflected to other files as well. For example, imagine adding an extra argument to a proc on protocol.tcl and the respective change on gui.tcl regarding the way it's called. Then we distribute protocol.tcl because of a later protocol change and suddenly the "stable" revision bugs. We'd need to distribute the patch instead, or think of a smarter way to do it.

It's a good idea however, and if someone can think of a better way to do it, it would be nice to include it in 0.98.
