I usually do mtn ann/mtn log, but there I stopped once seen that that line was changed in 2006, and that change what syntactic cleanup, so actual DEFAULT_PREFERENCE value likely was there for quite log time. >> So, I'd like to propose to remove mentioned DEFAULT_PREFERENCE and >> make other steps as needed to make 0.4.2 the default version. > I agree, that can't be wrong :-) Ok, committed. >> 2.
