Of course you have more rights to complain with announced ones, and this IS (theoretically atleast:) important. Not exactly about this case, but I received (not downloaded by myself:) the other day, an unsolicited e-mail with a virus, from (and via) my ISP based address, which I am going to report. In the described case though, the site for download packages is widely known. Its not for one time release, but for subsequent versions. Besides, warning is in most cases included _inside_ the package's license, that no-body is responsible for damage, use it 4 your own risk, etc, etc.. Anyway, I am not encouraging dounloading to quick, but just am stating that forbidding refference to something already placed on the WEB - is absurd. >Mark C. > L.

Re: [PHP] PHP 4.1 out?
Well, the big difference is that people who try out stuff like that are usually aware of the fact that they may very well be downloading something bogus. However, when you paste a URL that is typically a click away from a download with today's mailers, it goes to a much broader and unsuspecting audience. As for snapshots, you can take a look at snaps.php.net. No need to blindly browse for pre-releases anymore :) Zeev At 23:03 28/11/2001, Mike Eheler wrote: >Interesting. > >I'll hold off, but people will still try stuff like that.

FWIW (not much), I agree with this. If it looks like a released version and talks like a released version, then it probably is a released version, even if the announcement hasn't come out. That may be faulty logic, but it's what most folks are likely to assume. > Also, beyond this.. other than grabbing from CVS, does php ever publish > milestone development versions for download anywhere? Yes -- follow the php-dev mailling list -- they're announced there. RC versions are generally posted under someone's home directory rather than in the distributions directory. Not sure why that wasn't the case with the not-really-4.1.0 version. --kurt -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To contact the list administrators, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Hello Mike, PHP 4.1.0 is NOT out yet. You pointed a lot of people to a build that may _not_ be bug free. The release is NOT out of QA yet. The release is only official if it is announced on the website.
