I am happy to include your readme file in the distribution for the next release. I am not sure what to do with your distribution file, because it seems to contain the whole source - though I do not myself know how to process .evf files. My standard releases are, as I guess you know, .tar files (the standard way of distributing stuff in Linux/Unix). Would it not be better to send me just the VOS-specific files (if any) so that people could pick up the current release sources from a standard place, rather than limit them to the 7.9 release? Note that I do not maintain any versions that are on sourceforce. The "official" distribution site is an FTP server: ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programming/pcre/pcre-7.9.tar.gz ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programming/pcre/pcre-7.9.tar.bz2 ftp://ftp.csx.cam.ac.uk/pub/software/programming/pcre/pcre-7.9.zip and the "in-progress" source is on a Subversion repository: svn co svn://vcs.exim.org/pcre/code/trunk pcre Philip -- Philip Hazel -- ## List details at http://lists.exim.org/mailman/listinfo/pcre-dev
