Yeah, I find that to be a headache as well. But one concern is that the quality level between components can vary (alpha, beta, production), so I'd still like to retain some kind of quality indicator that would show up in the component index. Also, I'd still like to have release notes for the components. How do we match those up? Would a component in its second revision just get a RelNotes-0.8 for example? Would the version of the component package be 0.8 and 0.2? Perhaps most of the problems would go away if we either didn't refer to the version numbers in the non-release notes docs (such as User's Guides), or those were updated upon installation. That's actually where I have the most trouble. -Chuck _______________________________________________ Webware-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/webware-devel
