may i suggest a change in version numbering ? the 'dev' versions which have been produced during the past few years -- 2.8.5dev.1 ... 4 ... 5 ... 17 -- correspond to what other projects would call eg 2.8.6 ... 9 ... 10 ... 22 . let's call the imminent version 2.9 rather than 2.8.5 , then call what wb (in Lynx trad'n) 2.8.6dev.1 more simply 2.9.1 ; occasionally, there mb a special bugfix version eg 2.9.5.1 . this shd result in distros like Gentoo updating their Lynxes more often. -- ========================,,============================================ SUPPORT ___________//___, Philip Webb : [EMAIL PROTECTED] ELECTRIC /] [] [] [] [] []| Centre for Urban & Community Studies TRANSIT `-O----------O---' University of Toronto ; To UNSUBSCRIBE: Send "unsubscribe lynx-dev" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
