We wouldn't mind the oversea charges so much but DHL always requires us to pay 25 SFr. for their handling as well what we consider to be just annoying regarding the fact that we already paid 24$ for shipping and handling. > to do my best to make that happen, and now that we actually have a VP > of European operations (based in the UK), I certainly hope that a lot > more progress will be made on this issue. Ok. That would be nice. OTOH, the next time we aren't in as great hurry as we was when we needed the 4.0 cds as it's now possibe to just keep up with CVSup. The CDs are now just some kind of convenience stuff saving us from CVSupping half the release *g*.
