Re: using Pollo with the latest MSV

Hi Greg,

Thanks for your patches. I updated MSV to the nightly build of today,
and applied your changes (for the attribute values I did it slightly
different). BTW, using "diff -u" generates easier to read diffs. I also
applied your changes to pollo.sh.

Thanks for these useful contributions!

Regards,

Bruno

PS: If all goes well, I'll make a 0.4 release later today.

PS2: It could be that you don't see these changes in CVS yet, because
anonymous CVS checkouts are currently served from a backup server.
