Excellent info, thanks! I've succeeded in creating (and installing) my first test package. I was reading the docs and it describes how to upload the i386 package... not mentioning the other files. If I created my package this way, does it somehow adversely affect the package to be uploaded? I can't see that it does, just wanted to make sure. -Tony
