This seems to be a bit backwards to me. If hardly anyone notices that the forest doesn't build, it suggests that nobody is used it for development. Perhaps it would be possible to work with a single forest and freeze it periodically when it's being stabilized for a release? -- Florian Weimer <fwei...@bfk.de> BFK edv-consulting GmbH http://www.bfk.de/ Kriegsstraße 100 tel: +49-721-96201-1 D-76133 Karlsruhe fax: +49-721-96201-99
