Are plans afoot to include updating the primary.sqlite.bz2 files using presto?? Last night an update dnloaded, at modem speeds, this file three times, not matching a crc or something like that. TWO hours spent (wasted) never even getting close to the original purpose of the update. So, I cranked up smart and let it rip. It downloaded a pile of files but half were not their original length. It showed the files being completely dnloaded though. Is it getting confused somehow with presto'ized files? Hitting mirror after mirror after mirror to just getting the process started is, to say the least, pretty discouraging. If the process could be presto'd, then at least updating the sqlite stuff would not be such an issue. I would hazard a guess that there are plenty of people in this list that do not have access not the ca-ching nor the access point to have high speed access. Please keep us in mind. I just ripped CNN over a similar issue, a pile of needless content and ad crap to dnload on their web-pages that just dog down the original intent, to get some news. Of course some College Grad marketing hard-ass could make the argument that we aren't their targeted demographic anyways. Thanx for letting me bitch. I feel better now! <grins> Ric -- ================================================ My father, Victor Moore (Vic) used to say: "There are two Great Sins in the world... ..the Sin of Ignorance, and the Sin of Stupidity.
