I wonder what's going on HERE.. > Is this somehow a pilot error or should I fall back to 2.0.5? Why not fall back for now? I'll have another snapshot for you shortly that goes FAR beyond the last 2.1 snap and I'd much rather be finding the bugs in that one.. Not that I'm not interested in the other bugs, but if we're going to try to work through what looks to be a fairly evil set of problems, let's try to do it with more recent bits. Jordan
