Nope, mainly because at this moment in time I have no need to deploy it :-). There was a reported issue with the SuSE version that seems to have been contained (if not fixed)... I am also running a couple of things which just might get fritzed by such a deployment, and I do not want to let myself in for that kind of grief just now. If I upgrade to SuSE 10.3 and this has Java 6 as default this may become a problem (I have not checked whether this is the case or not). At the moment 10.2 is working well for me. Most of the improvements reported as part 10.3 are not relevant to my usage, and some of the reported problem areas are. So for the moment on balance there is not a great incentive for me to make such a move. This situation will change but not in the near future, and maybe my move will be to 11.0 and not 10.3... - -- ============================================================================== I have always wished that my computer would be as easy to use as my telephone.
