Seriously, when we do a new release, whatever the release is, then we want people to get the new release. The old versions go in the unsupported bin as far as I am concerned.

But could > you at least wait 24 hours for me? That's all I ask. I don't understand what the issue is.... time is short. I do as much as I can in the little amount of free time I have. I have no idea when or even if any other builds except the ones I make will (ever) be released. I have no clue if any of the other devs can or will do anything from the period I am off, to the period I get back. I don't know my schedule in advance, so that could be a few days or weeks or more. That is why, as soon as I finish the uploads, I throw them up, and have the "Coming soon!" tag for the missing versions. If I could make all builds I would, but unless Jobs sends me a mac, that isn't going to happen. When another dev can make the build they just edit the page... that isn't asking too much, and I am sure users understand that "Coming soon!" means just that... whenever someone has time to make it, they will. Time is the enemy here. _______________________________________________ Warzone-dev mailing list Warzone-dev@gna.org https://mail.gna.org/listinfo/warzone-dev
