A fix was checked in that does ont work on ALL systems. It was then release without checking. I don't give a fuck what you do with your own time. But I still don't think it's too much to ask for a cursory run through the examples. This was obviously not done as this critical error (not on browser a on platform b but globally) made it into the 'stable release'.
What's done is done. Now the bug (and others) have been fixed, but people still can't download a 'table release' Why is this? Once apon a time it was accepted in this group, that you would at least make a basic test before comiiting code to CVS. We even created examples to be used for this testing. When did everyone take a vote to stop doing this? And why was I not invited? ----- Original Message ----- From: "antti" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Michael Pemberton" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; "Doug Melvin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, December 11, 2001 12:18 AM Subject: Re: [Dynapi-Dev] Doug, READ LICENSE.TXT, PLEASE!!! > Doug, > whatever you do, it's your decisions.
