-<PRE>>><i> Speaking of 4.5.0, is there anywhere the masses can d/l this while it's
-</I>>><i> being worked on? Is there a CVS anywhere?
-</I>><i>
-</I>><i>I don't know about Andy, but I was reluctant to allow the general world to
-</I>><i>use under development source due to the number of unhelpfull bug reports I
-</I>><i>was getting. People did not seem to get the fact that the source was VERY
-</I>><i>alpha and as such didn't do many of the things it should - like saving
-</I>><i>databases or working properly. As things get closer to a final release it
-</I>><i>becomes easier to release it as beta code. 4.5 was getting very close to
-</I>><i>that stage when I last worked on it. However, Andy has to pick up where I
-</I>><i>left off, which means that it will probably be longer until it gets
-</I>><i>released.
-</I>><i>
-</I>><i>I hope this makes it clearer as to why the source was not released to the
-</I>><i>public.
-</I>
- Just for the record, this is more or less my reasoning as well, though
-for me it's simply that I _know_ the code won't work right and I don't need
-dozens or hundreds of E-mails telling me that. I plan to do like I did with
-previous versions: when 4.5.0-to-be is more or less stable, I'll release
-"pre-versions" (4.5pre0, 4.5pre1 etc.) for people to play with.
-
- P.S. I'll get to the channel suspension stuff later--I have a bit of a
-mail backlog to work through.
