Hi Ken

It is sometimes amazing how simple things don't work or stop working (regressions)... But overall they tend to get better. I sincerely recommend that you give version 4.1.3 a go. If it still doesn't work for you, then try again when 4.1.6 is out. Or 4.2.3... Never try x.0 versions ;) snowshed wrote > No, but the quality mechanic says "I'm booked up for a month, if you can > wait that long." Then he'll fix it, he won't ignore you. That gives > you the option of waiting or finding a new mechanic. Very interesting point. That is indeed one of the flaws in the volunteer method used in this project... There are other volunteer models that would probably work better. snowshed wrote > Contributing by reporting issues is all I can do for any software, but > eventually you hope to see things you find fixed.

That is another good point. If people bother to report a bug and it is not fixed for years (no matter how small or insignificant) then they are very unlikely to bother to report another one... In the end, the main enemies of this project are: the sheer size of the project and the volunteer "do only what you feel like" model.
