yes yes... I'm aware of that, but Mozilla.org is not exactly "on time" with there releases. Hopefully they have changed, but they have no track record of releasing on time. 1.0 was late, but good. I suspect the same with 1.1, late but good. The problem is 1.1 isn't ready yet, and the "ideal release" date has come and gone. If they are "on time" just like like thier other releases (1.1 alpha nad beta) we can expect thier 1.1 final in 3 days. That's fine., but leavs little time for testing for mandrake and us. It really wouldn't worry me at all except the last Mandrake releases have been "final" without any warning and I don't want to come in monday morning with a "Mandrake 9.0 Fianl Released" (as happened with Mandrake 8.2) with a bunch of stuff broke - like an "almost final" version of mozilla. So if you know 9.0 Final is going to wait for the mozilla folk to cut final... great. Otherwise.... the beta/cvs-snapshot isn't cutting it. -- Bryan Whitehead SysAdmin - JPL - Interferometry Systems and Technology Phone: 818 354 2903 [EMAIL PROTECTED]
