And that is a real problem for those who are trying to extend the reach of MythTv with packaged distributions. KnoppMyth is the best ally you ever had because it makes it far easier to get a Myth box up and running. But without SOME committment to producing a stable release you just cut the legs out from under it. Of all the open-source projects I deal with, MythTv is unique in this regard. All other projects I use and participate in try to come up with a stable, relatively bug free release from time to time. They freeze feature sets on a date and then allow some time for testing. Yes, it slows down development for a few weeks, but it results in happier users. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
