None of the ARM autobuilders are v3 anymore. Dropping v4 support would be a bad idea, since netwinders make up a fairly large part of the installed base, but I don't think anybody is even considering that. Dropping v3 does sound like a good idea to me though. p. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
