       Kees van Eeten wrote to Janis Kracht about MakeNL v3.4.1 Release:        No pseudo-French spellings, please!               JK>> In Z1Regcon, we've been discussing Makenl_NG's problems with the Z1        JK>> R17C and R19C who are still having problems, and Andrew I believe is        JK>> working on a fix...               JK>> R17C's problem may have been fixed by running a DOS version of        JK>> 3.4.1, we're waiting to hear about that.               KvE> So why is he switching to a dos version now. If that works he could        KvE> have done so last year. That would have saved a lot of work tracking        KvE> down a bug in the Wattcom compiler. Or is there a hope, that now thw        KvE> OS2 version works, some flaw can be found with the DOS version. He        KvE> should try his magic cut and paste function.              8^)               KvE> There are no problems in makenl_ng, the software has been in        KvE> development for almost 10 years. You have been using it for at least        KvE> four. There is no software in the world that has such a long lead        KvE> time.               KvE> What will happen if there are no more excuses on the RC level, are        KvE> the tests then extended to the Host level. Many of them have to be        KvE> compliant as well if they are to supply a net segment to the RC's.              A much easier and more logical solution would be to assign the region       segment compilation to a system that doesn't crash and have the file sent       to the RC for upload to the ZC...               KvE> For the other zones to be able to switch only you have to be able        KvE> to process the composite list with allowunpub enabled.        KvE> The Zone 2,3,4 segments are not processed by RC17 nor by RC19.               KvE> If you enable allowunpub when processing the composite list,        KvE> fidonet outside Z1 can move on, and you have all the time in the        KvE> world to sort out how to get makenl working. Now I have the feeling        KvE> we are led by the nose.              Sounds like it.               KvE> With aplogies for losing my temper.              Keep your cool...but don't be afraid to sound off when the need arises.                      R\%/itt                     --- GoldED+/W32 1.1.5-31012       --- D'Bridge 3.92        * Origin: South Texas Hub - Gulf Coast Backbone (1:387/22)    |
