This type of research, unpacked from personal experience for a general = perusal, salvages from the private pains & pangs, as well as the joyous = successes, encountered while fitting releases to systems, and = vice-[re]versa. As payback for the efforts made towards pulling me towards the success = side, I will see if i can create a spreadsheet, which I'll put up on my = web = page. Its goal will roughly be to list issues based on release:hardware. = I' also like to work on a page that helps with add-on dependencies so = that collisions can be avoided and troubleshooting made a bit easier. = Any help on either page is greatly appreciated and open to different = approaches entirely. For now, I'll plan to post the additional page title(s) and url(s) = soon... and how to send in verifiable additions to elevate its coverage = (perhaps with links back to contributors for spec-test-verification = details). I'm open to how best to approach each mini-project.... best wishes, frank re: On 02-April-2019, at 02:24 PM, David Christensen wrote:
