I was really looking forward to the 0.2 release, which I was hoping would consolidate all the zillion bug fixes and "unofficial" patches that are running around. I really want to run 386BSD but I can't make it into my only hobby, which is what seems to be required to keep up with the patches. I don't think *any* major changes to interfaces or internal algorithms should be made until *after* a release with the number 1.0 on it. Just my $0.02... Jim -- ------ Spoken: James W.
