It's what the > scientific community calls an "engineering problem" :) at the moment, the primary thing holding me back is the fact that the apr people, while they do distribute tarballs of the devel version of apr, they don't keep them around, so there wasn't a tarball to point the port to that would be good for more than 5 days. that, combined with the fact that subversion tends to track apr really closely, so we would end up needing to update the port a lot, has kept me from putting too much time into an apr port. -garrett -- garrett rooney Unix was not designed to stop you from rooneg@electricjellyfish.net doing stupid things, because that would http://electricjellyfish.net/ stop you from doing clever things.
