Can anyone give me a quick confirmation of this? Confirmed? Plausible? Busted? If this is confirmed or plausible, could someone give me a quick run-down? (I would appreciate a response, no matter how long it takes, but I do have a meeting with this co-worker in another 16 hours... (10am Pacific).) Thanks in advance! (FYI - I have cross-posted this, just once, to an SVN forum, in the event they might have a different opinion.)
