It is not strictly required, but having a friendly communication with upstream is very comfortable when you come to report bugs, request enhancements etc, as part of the maintainer's job. -=| David Paleino, Sat, 12 May 2007 16:25:00 +0200 |=- > Some (bad) news: I've just found the ibpp sources included in gambas. > D'oh. -.-' It seems gambas developers followed IBPP author's recommendation too. > Now, what should I do?

Or, if you have time and energy, try to explain upstream why a separate package would be a benefit. -- dam JabberID: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
