Ho!

Since nobody yet mentioned it: Thanks for that first OBOS patch! 
Eventually the non-coders can actively participate by testing.

One thing to remember when releasing the next patch is to state in the 
README.1st file that this is an alpha patch that may harm your system. 
While that is explicitly said on the OBOS website, not everybody who 
downloads the package visits it. Plus, IIRC the news about the patch 
appeared first on other BeOS news sites (without a warning), before it 
was up at the OBOS site...
Quite a few apparently fell into the OpenTracker bug and were left with 
an unbootable system (but it still comes up in Safe Mode).

Thanks again
J.Seemer
