Either way, we need to get a release on the rail a.s.a.p.

Your help is greatly appreciated. I agree that we need to post a  
universal binary of the current stable branch.
But we need to test the current branch first, to see if everything is  
working.

I am willing to give you write access to the svn repository if you  
send me a md5 hash as a password by private mail.
This way you can apply your patch to the SVN tree.

After that, we can test the branch and see if it runs stable, and all  
the new functionality is working.

Has anyone on this list been using the latest SVN tree?

Regards,

Bart
