In a month or two (when the relocation is dust!) I may take up the gauntlet and try to coerce the router version to play nicer .... It wont be a fast stepping of it as I will have a learning cliff to leap up, but I do believe in the pico concept .... It just needs a bit of broadening to mature some more (ie slow down the new code development a bit and increase the configurability and associated docs) Bruce's doc is a major step in the doc direction ... The work of the "small-core" team in tracking code development as FBSD evolves through versions is solid and necessary ... But it is a little bit of a closed world still for the easy deployment of the variants ... (eg router biting me at present) cheers all Murray Taylor Project Manager Bytecraft Systems Pty Ltd ph: +61 3 9587 2555 Fax: +61 3 9587 1614 Email: taylorm@bytecraftsystems.com -----Original Message----- From: Andrzej Bialecki <abial@webgiro.com> To: Murray Taylor <taylorm@bytecraftsystems.com> Cc: Bruce R.
