4.5.0, is there anywhere the masses can d/l this while it's
35 </I>>><i> being worked on? Is there a CVS anywhere?
37 </I>><i>I don't know about Andy, but I was reluctant to allow the general world to
38 </I>><i>use under development source due to the number of unhelpfull bug reports I

" (
4.5pre0,
4.5pre1 etc.) for people to play with.
