that really isnt a valid stance to take with the package in question ... by this logic, i can turn around and screw with the toolchain and if no one likes what i'm doing, then that's their problem and they can go fork themselves if people stop thinking of Ciaran as being nothing but a huge dick (which he can be) and read the thread from top to bottom, each of his e-mails in this thread was quite valid it seems the backwards compatibility crowd has won out and the current (quite powerful) format will be supported for those who want it ... and for those who are always looking forward, they shouldnt have a problem either -mike
