Hello, Responding to Ian's questions (at least some of them). I have removed the incompatibilities of BRAT with root v2.25.02. I have verified that brat compiles under both 2.24.05 and 2.25.02. So I am using 2.25.02 full time right now to discover whatever remaining inconsistencies there might be. If you feel courageous, you should also do that and give me feedback. I would, however, caution against using 2.25.02 and programming some of the neat new features of 2.25 as we are still heavily using 2.24 and that would make us non-backward compatible. As far as the reorganization, I completed at 12:30am Saturday morning the first iteration of all of the makefiles and linkdef files of the online part of the reorganized brat. This will continue to progress and at some point I will begin to use the new one and will release it when we decide that things are stable. Kris "I. G.
