texte = I have never needed MySQL or XSL/XSLT and I think there are many like me who may never need it as well, so I think you're on the right track here. If a user actually needs one of these features he can get it in v7.0 with a bit more installation work, that's all. But I don't quite understand the openssl issue. You said: > The needed openssl version is libssl.so.0.9.8 but > new linux distro use libssl.so.6 Is WebDNA the program that needs libssl.so.0.9.8? If so, how do you deal with this issue?
