In betwin others very good reasons : 1.- The public realases of Metacard are always bugs free : i'm always sure that if i find somes, the bugs are leeing in my own work and i just know what to do then ! 2.- You don't have to use the last realases with the last published systems realase (aka : olds issues of metacard are perfectly running under MacOS X 10.2, Suse-Linux 8, Suse-LinuxPPC 7.3, etc... 3.- Metacard is realy and directly multi-platform : i'm, at the moment, just working on a LinuxPPC platform on a mc stack that i will, in a few minutes, upload and run on a Linux x86 remote server. -- Cordialement, Pierre Sahores Inspection acad�mique de Seine-Saint-Denis.
