The intent was probably something more like "make sure upstream isn't bothered with support questions for your modified version", which would be fine. I don't see any requirement that support be provided at all, so simply stating that there is no support to be had for the modified version (i.e. primary contact = null) should be sufficient. -- Måns Rullgård [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
