Thanks Alex, point taken. I would love nothing more than to help with the redesign for the challenge and experience. I think FOP is a great project that the world needs yesterday. Unfortunately my company already has too much work for me and my clone, and there's no money in the budget for a third clone at this time. I'm sure you hear this sob story all the time.
As far as paying some third-party to address performance concerns, do you think that would make sense before the redesign is completed? thx, -Matt alex wrote: > > At 03:37 25/01/02, Matt Savino wrote: > > > Arved, thanks for the status update.
