To be fair, that was for folks on the isp-geeks mailing list, who were effectively doing alpha test with me. I was fixing about 1 significant bug per day and doing at least one release per day. 10 day old code was missing at least 10 fixes... ;-) And that was BGP3. BGP4 was the next developer. Regards, Tony
