I apologize in advance if you do not want to be bothered about wwwgnats; please let me know. I am interested in modifying the wwwgnats package to support my needs. Further, following some code reorganization, I would be willing to collect and distribute patches from various sources. The main thrust of what I want to do is to separate out the site-specific configuration and customization from the generic GNATS functionality. Of course, along the way I'd like to keep many of the enhancements made; I'm familiar with the work done for the Apache web site to generate table output and allow one-button responses for common user errors. I'd be happy to discuss more specifics with the interested parties. Right now, I'd especiallly like to know 2 thing: 1. Will you please provide me with your latest wwwgnats code? 2. If I change wwwgnats in such a way that your current functionality is maintained, will you switch to the new version? Thanks and regards, -- Kenneth H. Cox Software Guy Sente, Inc.
