Message-ID: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>

  I don't remember if SP1 worked this way or not, but my biggest request 
would be for EVERY new version of CF - be able to be installed  without 
having installed a previous version.   I ran into trouble once where my 
webserver died. I had to rebuild everything. I forget which version of CF 
it was, but it wouldn't install. I had to install the previous version 
first. Luckily I had CDs of many versions with me (the server is co-located 
an hour from my house).  I installed the next most recent version, then 
tried to install the current version, and it still wasn't happy. I had to 
go back, unistall CF, then install an even older version, then the current 
version allowed me to install it. It was a big waste of time - while my 
webserver was down. It would have been much worse if I didn't have the 
previous cds with me.

    That may be an acceptable form of copy protection for a game, but not 
for a server product, where lost time is money.
