You should post a patch to this list. read up on cvs diff, use the -u option for readibility. Your contribution is welcome. Ian I made a pass through all of them, correcting spelling mistakes and adding content here and there using my tool of choice (which happens to be Dreamweaver, but could

Maybe working backwards from my original problem would shed light on this. Let's take an example...right now in the nightly builds there is support for a tag called 'nunit2'. How would someone get access to documentation on this? The correct answer is: Do a point release, already. The current
