I have to say, I thought long and hard about this one. My life as advocate for the installed user base has been much more challenging since Rick came on the scene. It will become even more challenging in "commit then review" mode. Still, I think that Rick is a talented engineer who can move the technology forward rapidly. While that is not my focus, I do realize that this is important to the long term success of the product. I only ask that *any* proposed product behaviour changes (even perceived edge cases) be posted to the list for community evaluation and notification. Users have to be able to upgrade with the confidence that their applications will still work. Kathey
