I will create a Bugzilla entry for them as well. I think a mailing list is a good way to post patches, because it gives everybody on the list a chance to reply in-line to the changes being proposed. This system works with great success in the Linux project, which is (as we know) a mammoth undertaking. I think there is also a lot to be gained by putting these into Bugzilla. Maybe it should be that patches should be posted to *both* places? I think that might be an idea... > Regards, > Chris. > Thanks, James --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
