Paul, I should not have to justify myself on such type of points. You
seem to be only interested in attacking me personally rather than
examining the validity of a bug or the validity of my arguments. So
this extremely judgemental remark of yours is also not at all
constructive, IMO.

Nevertheless, for the sake of peace on this forum, I will clarify my
position for you. I travel a lot and am quite busy. It seems that when
this release came out, I was mostly offline - having gone to Thailand,
where for the better part of two weeks I was in the jungle around
Chiang Mai. After my return to Israel, where I am currently
headquartered, I had minimal time to dedicate to beta testing of TB
and no time to give more than a cursory glance at the many messages to
this list. I did, however, check the Ritlabs beta page to see if there
was a new beta release, and I understood from that page that I had the
latest release - 3.0.2.8.

Yes, you are probably correct that the signatures of many messages to
this forum indicate that people are using 3.0.2.10. But, for better or
worse, I prefer not to receive mail from this forum via POP3 (and my
TB) but rather read the forum on-line via a dedicated Gmail account.
Those who use Gmail will attest that signatures are often hidden
unless you click "Show quoted text". So, quite frankly, I simply did
not notice that others had a later release than I do.

Having said all of that, I still do not find anything wrong with my
reporting a new bug even if the beta that I was using is a bit out of
date.

So, Paul, can we move on now?
