I think my words are quite clear and don't at all imply that I am walking away from anything. However, since you have snipped out the first part of my email, some users reading only this one might be confused. I am just not going to continue doing everything myself for a project that has grown past my limits of available time. I also think it was clear what I want. We need people to do regression testing on all the platforms that I don't have (FreeBSD, Solaris, Win32 servers). We need developers to resolve platform specific problems for those platforms. I think I have said all this a good number of times, including the most recent email. This should be no surprise. > > jerry > > -- > "Oh joy! Rapture!
