It might be a good idea then to have the thick binding simply sit on top of the thin binding. That way you could get the best of both worlds. > What about a CVS based development? Would you > contribute ? Sure, the project I am working on at the moment depends completly on AdaSDL. It would be rather rude of me not to be willing to contribute to a project that I use so much. Just let me know what needs to be done and I will see what I can do about it. Perhaps we should move this discussion to the Sourceforge forumn/list? __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? HotJobs - Search Thousands of New Jobs http://www.hotjobs.com
