I think a lot of us are feeling kind of injured because (from at-least my position) we just purchased copies of 5.0 less than 6 months ago, it's worked great, Scott Anderson then came on the list and announce 5.2 with SQL tags, some of us got to play with the tags and began planning new projects around them believing it would be a free upgrade, and now we come to find out it's going to cost $500. I have no qualms with the price. I do have qualms with the fact this list was told it would be a free upgrade and then we hear nothing about it until it's released with a $500 price. Honestly, it's relatively sneaky, especially when some of us probably have new sites we've started to develop with the tags. -- Jesse Williams-Proudman Blue Box Development :: Custom Web Solutions +1.206.778.8777 :: jesse@blueboxdev.com ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
