I am targetting for 1.7 thats why call for wider testing to expedite. but it could only be decided with some level of testing. I havent done enough of testing yet myself it to be sure but in coming few days, it will be lot clear But if it turns into major issues then we can wait for 1.8 but it will be quite an effort to keep up with these patches over a long period of time. > > I'm certainly happy to get this through the autobuilder and see what > happens... > yes, ceertainly would help. > Cheers, > > Richard >
