Yes, sorry. I wasn't paying as close attention to the keychain discussion as I should have been. However, the recent (inexplicable) report that the older keychain is causing a crash (in bash???) makes me think that we can't wait that long to get a new version released. I should have made that much clearer in my message. I knew that Karl might be interested and was hoping that Karl might be reading this mailing list. Duh. Gee. I could actually have checked that. *pause* Nope. He isn't. I'm bcc'ing him. Do you really think we need to wait two weeks? When was the last time Hack sent email to a cygwin mailing list? Maybe Karl would be willing to make a new release with the understanding that Hack might want his package back if he resurfaces again in the next two weeks? I would just like to elminate a potential source of cygwin mailing list complaints. cgf
