      Hello RJ!              28 May 15 10:09, you wrote to me:               AL>> 1.0.5 is still a work in progress; that's why I haven't committed        AL>> it to the Sourceforge Hg repository yet.               RC> Ah, I'd wondered; I'm used to seeing a post about releases but I        RC> thought perhaps I'd missed something...              When a release happens, it will be posted here and on SourceForge.               AL>> I gave a copy to Sean Dennis for his use in setting up his new        AL>> BBS, and he shared it in his DropBox.               RC> So that's how Michael Ryan got ahold of it...               AL>> 1.0.5 should be considered alpha/beta code, and not for        AL>> production use. Once I am finished with the work in progress, I        AL>> will probably commit the changes as 1.0.6 to avoid confusion.               RC> That might be a good idea...              It should help avoid confusion, especially with the extra source code        repository that was set up.               AL>> At that time, I will gladly send you the source archive for        AL>> your Debian packaging efforts.               RC> I appreciate that but it's not entirely nececceary if a copy is        RC> hatched out and/or put online at SF.

Most        providers at this point offer some degree of IPv6 support. I'm currently        using the free DNS offering at he.net with no issues. DynDNS does offer IPv6        support also, albeit only with a paid account.              Regards,              Andrew              --- GoldED+/LNX 1.1.5-b20130910        * Origin: Phoenix BBS * phoenix.bnbbbs.net:2323 (1:320/219)    |
