I like the current system because it follows the Principle of Least Surprise. When I'm installing bugfixes I don't want my software to be unexpectedly upgraded to a completely different version. There are all kinds of situations where that may not be what I want. Even Microsoft follows this logic -- if I go to the Office Updates site, I may get a new service pack for Office 2003, but I won't find that my system has suddenly been upgraded to Office 2007. :) -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
