Hi Scott, Please listen to me. I'm seriously distu I was thinking on my bike ride: “Wow,
that man is jumping through hoops for you, for nothing. Brad Stone wants $329,
and I bet he wouldn’t even jump through hoops. You (this is talking to
self) ought to make an ex gratia payment to Scott. Would [company I work for do
it] do it…I doubt it…blah-blah.” Now, here you are, offering to change your
own software. I agree with you that it should be no big deal to register with
the DCM, and I have tried to set in train corporate steps to do this (I wish I
had my own sausage co. too at moments like this). Please, please don't bend over backwards any further for
me!! What can I do to make some sort of amends to
you, to say thanks in some way? I thought of a write-up in the News/400 forum (of
what you’ve done, the quality of this software – what little I know),
don’t know whether that would be appropriate, even if you’d like
that. If not that, then I ought to pay you a consulting fee (but it can’t
be huge, unless things go yet further). I’m so hoping that after restoring my
stupid alteration of your code, and getting people to register the app in the
DCM, your code will work fine, because I don’t want to keep bothering
you!! As you can tell, I have some difficulties about accepting all this
wonderful free help and software. Why should you do this? What do you get for
it? I’ll let you know if/when
everything you did runs fine, as I’m sure it will… Peter -----Original Message----- Sender: Scott Klement <sk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Hi Peter, > You're absolutely right, I'm sorry. I had commented out the call

the change into the next release. Though, I don't understand what the big fuss is about registering an application. In fact, EXAMPLE4 will attempt to register itself with the DCM automatically. > I will set out to get this accomplished now, since I believe I do

a beta version within a few hours that will allow you to forego that step, though, if you'd like. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the FTPAPI mailing list.
