Based on what i understand from Jean's email, what you say does not address Jean's concerns. I think this is more a criticism about the way OSCAR is setup and the way we report issues to users. And i tend to agree with that. It is also very difficult to know the current status of OSCAR (is something missing? broken?). For what i understand of Jean's email, this is the points he does not like. Jean can you confirm/clarify? BTW, i spend time on the configuration issues (working on the new GUI) and i think i have now some usefull stuff. -- Geoff ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
