It was my understanding (just from the list, since I don't use 'em either) that whatever problems there were, were in 3.6 as well, so while it may be a bug, it's not a regression. Something that should be fixed, perhaps, but not an argument against 3.7 qua 3.7. Of course, I could be all wet; if they ARE regressions, then they do need to be smacked down. But ISTM that _that_ is the question to be answered. > If 3.7a5 is good enough to go to beta or release state, even with > the stuff I don't check, I'm all for it! > > I'm using CTWM 3.7a5 myself, just as it is without any desktop > system, and I'm quite happy with it for now. I'd back it. I went from 3.6 to 3.7a5 without having to change anything in my rc file, and everything worked just fine. And it certainly seems a step forward, even if only for being able to deal with those stupid phantom GTK windows so I can f.setoccupy Mozilla finally. There's plenty of parts of the code that I don't exercise at all, though, so that may not mean much. -- Matthew Fuller (MF4839) | [EMAIL PROTECTED] Systems/Network Administrator | http://www.over-yonder.net/~fullermd/ "The only reason I'm burning my candle at both ends, is because I haven't figured out how to light the middle yet"
