Does the second one still win? Or does the first one win again? Either way I'm not sure it solves the problem; if each module asserts that *they* are the smarter one then you either wind up with the same situation you have now or even worse contention. Seems like a bandaid for poor module writer collaboration, personally. :-) -Nate
