If it is true that you've already done the work, it works well, and it adds no significant additional complexity or risk of failure to AOLservers which do not use the feature, then you should go ahead and add it to the standard codebase. Low risk, low complexity utility features, particularly of proven reliability and at least some proven usefullness, should go into the standard codebase, IMNSHO. And Zoran, at least, is someone I think we can all trust when he says it is low impact, low risk, reliable, and substantially useful to at least some people... Note that I probably won't even use that feature myself, but the debate so far on the list - DESPITE providing lots of useful info on alternative methods - still largely reminds me of the apocryphal stories of business executives heatedly debating over the cost of coffee and the color of websites - not because it's important, but because it's small, trivial, and something they all already understand and easily relate to. -- Andrew Piskorski <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.piskorski.com -- AOLserver - http://www.aolserver.com/ To Remove yourself from this list: http://www.aolserver.com/listserv.html List information and options: http://listserv.aol.com/
