I suspect we're all headed there sooner or later..... Now if I can just get someone to come pick up these alligators I'll be able to get back to my swamp-draining.

Taylor; [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: OpenSRS-SF Thanks for the assist...the XML::Parser module is missing on Eric's site...it is not used for the current version from the OpenSRS site. I am anxious to try out the billing code on the new stuff as well as integrate my enhancements using hooks so that I don't fall victim to the need to constantly redo all my changes every time a new version is released...other than those things, I too am happy with the current version. But my billing system does need work and it seemed like a better investment of my time to upgrade and use the version coming out instead of reinventing everything the next time we are forced to upgrade by significant enhancements/bug fixes, etc. Anyway...thanks for all the help...if(when) I get it working I will contribute my 2cents as well...:) -bryanw HalfPriceNames Domain Registry http://www.halfpricenames.com/ -----Original Message----- From: Lynn W.

I think he's mentioned the SourceForge version as well. I'm sure he'd like to know if any were missing. We're in no great rush to get on the SourceForge version as I don't think it adds much at this point, so I can't comment on it directly. -- Lynn -----Original Message----- From: Bryan Waters Sent: Thursday, November 15, 2001 11:28 AM To: Lynn W.

I'm running my entire site on NT using OpenSRS...i'm talking about the SourceForge version which is the next generation of OpenSRS...i'm trying to upgrade. I have used Eric's site to great advantage in getting my current site up and running quickly.

The appropriate documentation is at http://www.atlcon.net/opensrs -- Eric Longman has done a great job keeping all of this current, and keeping the appropriate perl modules in PPM format (so you don't have to build them). -- Lynn -----Original Message----- From: Michael L.
