How does that help in this case? I guess it allows commenting on individual changes, but I think the changes are likely too large to be beneficial to that. > We from ICEI (ian, Eric, me) are interested in seeing what you have so > far and maybe we can help pick up from there. One of the problems I know we'll hit is that the patch was done against a much earlier point between 5.7 and 5.8 and there will be conflicts and issues because of it. But I will try to get that branched from hopefully the right point where it still works. -- Wes Hardaker Please mail all replies to [email protected] ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, Slashdot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot
