Except for the last part, is it not so?

No ne has done it because it is a huge task. BUT it would be harder for someone
not as familiar with the saftware as say DM is.

I wouldn't put myself at his level of understanding. Some people have as great
a working kowledge of some parts of Sync as DM (maybe) but no one knows it all
like DM.

No, ANYONE can't. They must demonstrat that fact first before any thing is
accepted.Duece and Cyan and others have done this. I'm (for example) am closer
to the user/sysop level. I need clear consise docs and help files for nearly
every aspect of Sync operation. AND it's still evolving [sync - not me] Sync
has far outstripped the DOCS. Files are added as they are needed but it seems
to me that there lacks  some organization (bear in mind my levels)

Yes the talent pool interested in Sync developement is a large group. *I'm*
interested, I just have nothing much to contribute (not zero but closer than
say YOU)

WTF are you going on about. I have read a few messages from you in the same
vien. After being told no, you have continued to ask. Perhaps your just a case
of knowing what your talking about because *You're* the expert.


 TW> It didn't work but nice try tho. You get an "E" for "Effort" :-)

You say. But I care little for your opinion of me. or of anything much in
general...
