I, on the other hand, think that reserving the right to make changes to the format is a good thing. And given that, I think the warning paragraph in the documentation is to the point: "go ahead and use this, but note that the format may change in the future". But I do like your first suggestion, that RunRev bless and document the format. Since it's the only way to get this information, telling people to use it seems a bit dodgy, even though it *is* listed in the docs. -- -Mark Wieder mwie...@ahsoftware.net _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
