I.e. I don't think we'll see 1.4 until this time next year at the earliest. ...Unless I've grossly underestimated the progress being made on it. -------- Side issue: Can we please not discuss the copyright and shrink-wrap license issues here? I've seen this argument before, and no one seems to have The Right Answer. It's good to discuss it, but since I don't know how to use the 'k' key yet, I'd rather you didn't. Misc.legal is probable a good place to talk about it. _-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_ Leo L.
