Running -CURRENT is challenging enough, as I am continually finding out. Personally, if I can make this process a little easier for others by a simple HEADS-UP email message when appropriate, I'm willing to do it. I don't give a flying hoot what the other 200+ developers think or do on this point, that what *I* do, and I'm sticking to it. Peace, Bruce. PS. Is it just me or is the fact that the debate over a HEADS-UP message is causing the HEADS-UP subject header to get propagated far longer than necessary, just especially ironic? PPS. It's also ironic that I chose to respond to this thread before updating the release notes.
