I wrote in reply to Manuel Kaufmann: "With regard to sharing, the only difference between Etoys 4 and Etoys 5 is that Etoys 5 will still work if the presence service fails, whereas Etoys 4 showed an error on startup." >>>> But this looks like a different problem, right? >> >> Yes. > > Care to elaborate?

But without further information I can not elaborate, unfortunately. - Bert - _______________________________________________ Sugar-devel mailing list Sugar-devel@lists.sugarlabs.org http://lists.sugarlabs.org/listinfo/sugar-devel
