Yeah we'll have to wait and see if they will confirm us. I'm not sure how long this process is as I couldn't find a statement on when. Maybe i'm just blind.
But yeah =/ |

#define Int main()
#define Return printf

It looks promising, but it's still very buggy. Not that I would expect anything else from a closed beta though.  |

I guess we can now make a ebuild request in the bugzilla, now that we have the beta file. It would be cool if the ebuild would be ready as soon as Adobe publish it final.  _________________ (7 of 9) Installing star-trek/species-8.4.7.2::talax. |
