Fair questions; for the -moment- (this will change, archive readers, read deeper into this list if not-found) - you will find the snapshots in time that previously were tagged for testing at; http://people.apache.org/~wrowe/aspdotnet_moving/ There's a very clear notice that these are not releases. They belong in a new home - but the details are not quite worked out yet. The moment they are, there will be an announce for anxious readers on this forum. I can only confirm that the software will find a new home, at this point, and the mechanics are in motion. Bill Graeme Walker wrote: > Hi Bill, > > Any news on the 2004 release of the mod_aspdotnet?
