I certainly didn't want give the impression of trying to hold anyone
personally responsible. It may be that my english vocabulary isn't large
enough, my grammar may be bad, or any other reson, but this was never my
intention. If Chris also got, or gets, the same impression you did, I hope
he also gets to read this as to understand that nothing I wrote was directed
at him *personally*.

Actually, no. At that time I was just struggling to get a hold of where to
discuss what matters.
I read his post, but as I was new to this community I didn't think it was
appropriate for me to give a response. Maybe I was wrong.

As the chinese say - "May you live in interesting times". :-)

At the moment "Ashes" is not functional. But, the "Firebird" CVS is up (I've
been committing to it lately). We will ASAP be moving the CVS to the
Firebird Ashes project. Notice will follow.

If we by this is up for a vote, I'd at the moment vote for Source Forge. Not
because I'm involved in the Firebird project, it could actually be *any*
project at SF (except "Interbase" with its current administrator, otherwise
it would be the perfect place), but because SF holds all the needed
facilities (bugtracking, mailinglists, CVS, webspace, even a compile
farm...).

May your design be blessed, by the implementation of a developer.
Then we'll see, if your design was any good.
