Thanks Bob. Would it be possible to fix this issue without updating the client? Thinking of the people that have already downloaded mactrek. I will update the client on playnetrek.org but what are we going to do about the listing on apple.com. Would hate to have it delisted. I do not have permissions to update the client in /files/Mactrek on netrek.org. Can someone with write permission to that directory update the client? I have CC'd Chris on this email in case he is not monitoring the dev list. -Joe > To: netrek-dev at us.netrek.org > From: basic at us.netrek.org > Date: Thu, 30 Apr 2009 00:49:45 -0500 > Subject: Re: [netrek-dev] conflicts with mactrek and metaserver change? > > > Are there any mac users out there that can test this?=20 > > Can we verify how many mac players have been hitting the servers this past = > > week? > > > > I download the client=2C execute it and the only option I have is localhost= > > > > I've been looking for an excuse to try some osx development.
