Please forgive me jumping in,
but what kind of bug are you talking of ?
I'm new to this mailing list and thus surely
missed your earlier postings.
I am just interested in it from a technical
point of view, as me and my colleagues at work
make heavy use of various Linux distributions
vor various things (DNS, Mail, WWW, etc.),
and we have just started to use Mandrake 7.0
on some desktop machines. If you know of any
bugs I'd be glad if you could tell me,
just in case something "funny" happens on my
machines.
thank you,
DJ.
