Matthias,

As you know, not much code has changed since the current stable
release, which is 0.96.2.  This morning SourceForge is showing 0.96.6
downloads at 98 and 0.96.2 downloads at 785, for a total of 883 (not
counting text files).  These numbers don't include the intervening
versions or counts for other download sources.

I hadn't been aware of db4.4's release until I saw your CVS commits
yesterday.  Evidently it new.  Do we even want to mention it in 1.0.0
documentation?  Given our lack of experience with it, I'm inclined to
say the answer is "No."

Martin,

I don't have db4.4 installed either.  It certainly isn't required for
1.0.0.  It would be great if you upgraded to 0.96.6 and gave it a
test.  I don't anticipate any problems, but one never knows.  Surprises
_do_ happen.

Regards,

David
