APLAWS+ is built directly on top of CCM. Historically it has forked WAF/CMS but with the 6.1.0 release we worked hard to merge all of the forks into the mainline in a supportable way. Patches to APLAWS+ that affect CCM should (and generally do) find their way upstream. Richard Bob Jacoby wrote: > The problem is I don't have Aplaws; I have CCM.
