Hi,

well, I couldn't download the file ("insufficent parameters" ???). I
was logged & stuff, it didn't work. Maybe you can email it to me
directly? I'm at gmail.com (address above). Sourceforge is very slow
and... not very fun to use. Have you considered moving the project
elsewhere? Also, have you consideret using git? I saw Linus Torvalds
speaking about it and the differences to CVS/SVN on Google Video (do a
search...). :-)
I find it very frustrated to be blocked by such insignificant
problems. That's why I think this should be really a matter to think
about.
Bye
Clau
