I would think they should just rename d14 to an official 1.8, stick it on the web site, and be done with it. The only reason I think they should do it is because of the spam holes in 1.7. Right now they are essentially encouraging use of known exploitable software. I doubt the numbers are high, but based on the fact that every few weeks it crops up here with someone using 1.7 because they are unaware of a 1.8, I'd say there is enough people to warrent a change. Doing an official 1.8 release would help get 1.7 out of use. At the very least, they should link to the 1.8b8d14 version from the web site, with a mention that it should be used instead of 1.7. -chris <http://www.mythtech.net> ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
