Makes sense... the new ACLs take a little getting used to (although they're actually more consistent). It was unfortunately impossible to make them compatible as it was a change in the way that the ACLs processed (the old version is from some pre-cvsnt patches although it'd been mostly rewritten - the new stuff scales a lot better so shouldn't require any nasty upgrades in the future). > I've always thought that the 'noise' level about a release on this list was > a very good indicator as to how safe a new version has been :-) The noise > about 58d has been going down steadily lately, so I'm hoping that the issues > with that release have been worked through. I think so. That's pretty much how I gauge it too... There will always be problems for some, with so many users (I've seen the numbers, and it's a lot higher than you'd guess by looking at the list..) > Fortunately, my main cvs server (2.0.41a) is rock solid, and my hot spare > (2.0.51b) is too, so I don't have any pressing need to upgrade. Makes sense to me. If it works, don't worry about it... Tony
