How about a new option? 4. Remove the f5 feature, release 1.7 without it and revisit when we can settle on a new design? IMO, it is too late to be considering a brand new design. If we are not comfortable with the current implementation let's pull it out and come back to it later. -- Thanks Mark Phippard http://markphip.blogspot.com/
