You contradict yourself now. First, you said documentation should be ready first to accept it. Now you say that you will write documentation when it is accepted.
Either way, I was wrong in my original post. I thought that sqlbox was part of de gateway svn trunk already. But it is not. I don't know why not, other from historical reasons but I think (imo) smppbox should be treated the same way as sqlbox. Personally I think they both belong to 'gateway' instead of separate projects, because it is a lot easier for the users. But okay... if someone thinks they have a valid reason to have them split up (like the way it is now), it is fine for me as well. == Rene -----Original Message----- From: Nikos Balkanas [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: maandag 7 juni 2010 15:39 To: Rene Kluwen; 'Alexander Malysh' Cc: [email protected] Subject: Re: smppbox OK, then.
