No problem, I realize it's still a work in progress. Just wanted to make
sure I provide useful information to you.

Thanks,

Paul

> Ok, I wasn't sure whether to post this or not,

If you're concerned about my earlier post, my point is not to discourage
bug reports, but to emphasize realistic expectations. It should be
abundantly clear by now that this new code DOES NOT WORK YET. It's
closer than it appears (the C++ is actually pretty close to stable I
think, some more doc work is left to do), but it's not there yet.

So asking us to debug problems *using it* is not going to get a quick
response if it isn't immediately obvious what the issue is.

If you find a bug, the best thing to do is post it to
bugzilla.internet2.edu

If you find a possible bug, that's still the best thing, we'll just
close it if it's not a bug.

But don't expect to post stack traces of your own code and get a one day
response of "here's all you did wrong..." because we're not in that mode
yet, and chances are you did nothing wrong, there's just a bug or the
code isn't stable in that spot yet. But we have to have the actual bug
in our source to fix it (i.e. what you posted) , or us tracking it down
will probably take longer than people are expecting to wait for an
answer.

Thanks,
