There's no reason why that should be so. With all source in change control, with the languages in use being typical, and with active developers for each client (or server), they should be able to take patches from a single developer (you) implementing a feature that has common appeal. That's how I did it with the metaserver solicitation changes ... issuing patches for Vanilla, INL, and Paradise servers. If you strike a barrier to your patch acceptance, then you have to work with all concerned developers until the problem is resolved. -- James Cameron mailto:quozl at us.netrek.org http://quozl.netrek.org/
