Yes, please, someone who can, cut a new stable version from CVS. 

In our "spare time", we're trying to move to Webware for all our web
sites, apps and online surveys, learning as we go. But we hit a wall
with the bug documented here:

http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/msg01948.html

I tried editing the source myself, but that didn't do it, and then
replaced the file with the one from CVS, but still no go. Clearly I'm
doing something wrong but it would be swell to not have to do it at
all... and I'm sure anyone trying Webware for the first time and trying
to set Webware to start up and shut down automatically with the OS is
going to run into this. Many will give up and move on.

It's not good to make newbies jump through those hoops to get the tool
working the way it should... please, someone, test and cut a release to
help grow the community of users. 

Has anyone else noticed that list activity is down sharply starting last
September? See the counts at:

http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/forum.php?forum=webware-discuss

I want the project and community to grow, not shrink, and I think this
is a critical step.

As someone else posted in this thread, we can't just demand a new
version, we need to step up ourselves. I think the guys who built this
are geniuses and clearly they're busy, as they should be.

My staff and I are not gurus enough to code Webware, so I can only
contribute money to the process. I'll happily pay a $500 CAD bounty for
a 1.0 release in 2004, plus $250 CAD for a tested catch-up-to-CVS 0.8.x
or 0.9.x release in Q3 2004.

I realize that's not much considering the work that may be involved, but
we're a small company. If anyone else can add to the pool, please do.
And let me know if there are other ways we can help this along.
