Not had much chance to play with 3.1 (just loaded it a few minutes  
ago), but it looks like the T5 navigation issues are definitely  
fixed. Thanks!!

Also, did we miss the announcement to the list for 3.1? I only  
realised it was ready from the email you sent earlier today.

Hope to give 3.1 a good workout this weekend.
