I must agree on all this, e.g. I was also quite impressed :). I can't use CVS (also have to learn it some day). I personally think that a lot of people come to the dia-website but when they see the "old" news items then I think they leave dia for what it is and try to look for another program. Too bad, because I really think dia has a bright future. So if the CVS version would be stable, plz plz plz bring out another official release, plz? If possible, a windows port would be great too (personally I use linux, but I've convinced some windows-friends of using dia too!). If the CVS version just wouldn't be stalble enough, than maybe you could post a message on the dia website that dia is alive and kickin'? greetz, cobnet, hoping to see the dia website change ;-) _________________________________________________________________ Meld je aan bij de grootste e-mailservice wereldwijd met MSN Hotmail: http://www.hotmail.com/nl _______________________________________________ Dia-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dia-list
