Yes, I am. I don't know what's involved in using SVN but I did look at the SVN tree via the web and at first and second look, it wasn't obvious how to use the web to easily download the masses directory for SA 3.2.4. I couldn't even find SA 3.2.4. I've looked at the Subversion web site and skimmed through the Subversion book. To be honest I don't have the time to learn a new tool of this complexity just so I can download the masses directory. A couple of weeks ago I downloaded a recent tarball and moved its masses directory to my SA 3.2.4 installation. While the documentation seems to be a bit on the light side, I think that I've got most of it figured out, mainly by reading the POD and the code. There are a few things that aren't working the way I would expect. All I want is the latest version of masses that works well with the latest RELEASE version of SA. Could these mixed versions cause any problems? Where is the best place to ask for help in using mass-check? Where should I report mass-check bugs? >Is this turning out to be a major barrier? I'm sure it's not a barrier for the folks that have been using SVN for a long time. :-) >Should we put mass-check back into the distro? Please do. Or at least make it available as a separate tarball. Or perhaps you could offer a separate complete SA distribution. Nedry
