It sounds like it is ok. I trust your judgement, on this, Robert. I'm willing to put the patch in the sources on a promise of an assignment being forthcoming, too. I just won't pull the sources into our internal repository until I get the assignment. If Thomas wants to send me, via private email, a scanned, signed copy of the assignment form that would be great, too. cgf
