Heh, and they're good at it! I meant no harm. But, you know, sometimes the pre-release builds of open source projects are known from the very start to be buggy or unstable, and it is advised to restrict use only to testing. You know, like Windows 98 for example: use is advised only for sake of testing the "blue-screen-of-death-at-startup" feature ;-> > You must decide if the even higher standard of the release > is needed for your project.

I haven't had any trouble with it This is as much as I wanted to hear: no known, obvious, major flaw. Not like Windows 98, so to speak... OK, now let me read some documentation on CVS so I can figure out how to download the source :-) Alex ------------------- To unsubscribe, mail caml-list-request@inria.fr Archives: http://caml.inria.fr Bug reports: http://caml.inria.fr/bin/caml-bugs FAQ: http://caml.inria.fr/FAQ/ Beginner's list: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/ocaml_beginners
