It is impossible to verify that in a binary. We have to trust the person building it to do so according to an approved script. If people want to push a given set of binaries through a QA process and vote on the results, more power to 'em -- anything posted to our webservers is subject to voting if desired. However, they are just fooling themselves if they think testing the binary is sufficient to verify that the binary actually matches the source version. "Real" open source developers build their own. ;-) ....Roy --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
