I agree. In 1.4, we introduced a lot of new features, and at the same time, totally changed the foundation (repository layer etc.). That was simply too ambitious. But we have to look ahead from now, which means to get 1.2.5 and 1.4 out. A new status update for 1.4 is still on my ToDo list, I hope it is worth doing an RC soon. > Gregor offer to do a 1.2.5 release but there was hardly any feedback. > That is really strange and shows the actual state of the community. I have to admit that I didn't take a look at the 1.2 branch for quite a long time, but I'll invest some time in basic Mac OS X testing. -- Andreas --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
