I don't have any idea what the support policy is, but
I can believe RSI only *tests* IDL on Red Hat. Here
you see the down side of open software. Anybody and
his brother can be in there tinkering under the hood.
Should a software manufacturer have to hire a squadron
of technical support engineers to support *everyone's*
wild hare ideas? I don't think so.

Cheers,

David

P.S. Don't bother to flame me. I already admitted I
don't know what the hell I'm talking about. :-)
