Rado, I'm sorry to sound a bit harsh, but I think nobody these days cares that much about netrek. Nobody will setup anything to compile/manage/distribute netrek clients. We all (at least most of us) are grown people that at some point were crazy about the game and were willing to spend indefinite amounts of time to make the game better (each one in his own way). We aren't that crazy anymore :) I beleive that no person in this list (correct me if I'm wrong) is willing to spend time to do tasks that you're willing us to. I guess James/Carlos/Trent are people that will still have last word in regards of what's right and wrong in current netrek community. However they don't spend that much time in the netrek universe any more. It's just the life, nothing to do with that. Great open source projects wouldn't be that great if there wouldn't exist constant wave of new developers that come and take charge. Same goes here. I hope I didn't offend anyone and I'm sorry if I did. This is only my opinion and as good old saying states: "When two jews argue there are three different opinions" :) Stas.
