If you feel it has not been tested enough consider submitting it with CC: stable@. Because it should hit 3.1.x eventually. No? (While at it maybe some of the other clear FIXs above as well these that make it unusable) Thanks Boaz > > This includes all the bug fixes for 3.1 plus some others that are less > important or higher risk.
