That depends. If old attchments are kept, it is verfy important with names that clearly states wether 1) it is a new version of a patch (use e.g. v1 v2 etc in the name. Especially remember to use v1 in the *first* one.) 2) it is an addition to another patch or 3) it is one of several sub-patches. Today, very often, you have to browse through the comments to figure this out. Also: in the comments, we should be catious to name the patch instead of writing "this", "new" or "latest", which after som new patches and comments are of very little value. -- Bernt Marius Johnsen, Database Technology Group, Staff Engineer, Technical Lead Derby/Java DB Sun Microsystems, Trondheim, Norway
