And to clearly mark and date and changes. This is not possible to make sure any existing code is not broken. The components are much too open to achieve this goal. The person introducing the changes can only reasonably guess that his changes won't break most existing code. FYI, the changes you critize doesn't break any of my existing code and I have received only very few report that it break anything. > I, nor anyone else, don't the time or inclination to compare every new > source for undocumented changes, and try to work out what has been done. That's not what is asked. It is asked that you (and others) give an opinion about how the new features are implemented. There are design choices to be taken. You can influence on the choices. The more people participating, the better will the choices taken be ! If you don't want to participate, it's OK but then, do not complain when it is finished that it doesn't perfectly fit your needs. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.overbyte.be -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
