Seconded. I gave some code of mine to someone with instructions to install chicken to compile it. He said it doesn't work. Oops. Yeah, You gotta use 3.3. Ok, how do I get it. Uh, dunno. He now thinks chicken is a POS. My fault for not testing my directions but annoying none the less. I know you guys are stretched thin but please consider making going *back* to 3.3 or similar easy and obvious from the chicken home page. 4.X should be marked as experimental until 80 or 90% of the eggs work IMHO. In other words 4.X is exciting and all but some of us are using chicken to get things done and can't afford exciting ... > On Sep 9, 2009, at 12:16 PM, Derrell Piper wrote: > > Seems like you already have a substantial broken egg problem with > > Chicken 4 already.
