Hi Per, ok, no problem, i understand your distance to os windows. And i feel a bit with you. We do a lot of promotion about pskmail. In spite of every affort, look at the traffic how many clients are on air. For incresing extension of pskmail, a windows version is necessity. We are just back from the Ham-Exebition AMTEC Saarbrücken. The conclusion is, peoble were asking and waiting for a win- version. I see the forking as a second chance. We are on a good way, aproxm. 60 % are allready translated. vy 73 tom dj4wl On Wed, 19 Nov 2008 12:03:46 +0100 Per Crusefalk <per@xxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Sri, I must apologize here.
