The only message in this thread that you have NOT responded to was the 
one where I answered these questions for you (again) in simple terms. 
The people that do the work of supporting branches do not have the 
time to support 6.2. You're not going to get another answer because 
there isn't one.

It's clear from you rhetorical style that you are uninterested in 
anything in the vicinity of a constructive conversation, so this is my 
last response to you.

Doug
