Good point and this might be one reason why we need a RC status before going GA. I know that on at least 2 platforms (windows, netware), there would be a lot more testing and feedback from the general user community if binaries were available. Personally, I don't normally roll and post binaries until the source code has reached some status such as BETA. In this case it appears that we are trying to go directly from testing to GA with no real interim status designation. Should I change my practice and roll binaries anytime a tarball is produced? Where should I post the binaries, /~bnicholes, /dev/dist, /dist/httpd/binaries/netware??? Just looking for some clarification, Brad
