Hei All,

thanks to Egdar and Pepper - so my take is we use 1.4.2 and if we find 
magically some time until the feature freeze (7th of Jan) we take a 
snapshot.

Hence, no changes to Michaels response to Cameron.

cheers - and just in Case there is no more email:

        "Happy Holidays to All of you JPP Devels!"
