[PCR-1000] Re: PCR-1000 digest, Vol 1 #395

I thought is was pretty clear that version 2.4 was the "release version" or
the GA version in IBM jargon...
I really fail to see the issue here.
It is very clear that the 45 dollars goes to pay for the time and
effort Pete put into the program when he wrote it.
It does exactly what it is supposed to, and it is fast and reliable.
I don't see the problem with the fact that is has not changed.
Is there a missing feature that you need?
Would you be happier if the author didn't offer the beta publicly on his web
site and you just saw version 2.4?
