Re: showstoppers

The problem is that there are active changes going on during this QA process. We need to talk to the core team about a feature freeze. It is impossible to test a release candidate when we have no feature freeze - what compiles for me now may not compile in 5 minutes after someone commits a change to the CVS. I can help with build process - I have some scripts, and I can write some more to do build testing etc under *nix.... -brendan ----- Brendan W. McAdams | ph.

I think that I am going to not going to work on actively trying to test RCs (or at least not on as many *@$#* platforms) until I have a better grip on the basic skills needed to build and install.
