Straight to the point.  I like.  Just don't share your opinion of what you think of some of us.

Sorry?  Not sure who that's addressed to, but personally I have no beef with 
anyone on comp.sys.a2 and my opinions are strictly positive.

If Geoff is willing, who should the code be sent to?

NW. I'd be glad to receive the changes in my mailbox at brutaldeluxe.fr please, but I believe I already have those in the code unless the changes were in bugzilla inly.

Thank you,
Antoine

AFAIK, Geoff's changes were simply never released.  He asked me not to 
redistribute the binary I received several years back and I've respected his 
wishes (if you do already have them, my apologies).

I have a note off to Geoff asking whether he would be willing to let you 
include them in the GS/OS update.

Since you are removing bugs, and OS X is accumulating them, I may 
seriously consider it as my next mainstream OS. Absolutely amazing work!

There have been many bugs fixed and many features added that are not immediately visible-they will enable developers to create better future products.  Be sure to also read the Shortcuts file on the SystemTools3 disk for more information.
