Please grow up, Brian. If you want to side track the issue, why
don't you wait for Robert, etc, to answer? Are you pissed at that
particular change, so that if anyone brings up a problem with it, and
who might happen to have had a conversation with them once or twice,

Please don't mangle replies like this to make them unreadable.
Peter's comment is spot-on. The request for versioned installs and the
