As long as it's performant and doesn't have memory leaks, I don't see a problem with this. I think it's useful for many developers wanting to install and try out Roller. It's one of those features you really enjoy out of the box. I agree that corporate installations will probably use a different strategy - but I think we should develop for everyone (especially developers that want to blog), not just corporations. ;-) Matt > :-) > > Regards, > > Elias > > On 10/26/05, Dave Johnson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > On Oct 26, 2005, at 2:28 PM, Allen Gilliland wrote: > > > I'm not sure I full understand why we make referers available in the > > > first place.
