Hi David, I do not talk about the documentation on the web.
The documentation packaged with the 1.5. release is wrong as well. If the doc is wrong in any case it might be better to provide a doc.html, which states. > This is a pre-release. > Don't expect to find any useful documentation here. > If you're relally interested in the documentation of the > previous release, then click 'here' I still think this would be better than providing bad documentation without any comments.
