Hi, While I agree in principle, ie, that supplied contrib code should be both unix (of some sort) and NT, but, for here at least that produces a pratical problem of not having any NT systems to try this on. I think you might limit your contrib archive if you only accept submissions from people who have access to both. cheers bruce Valery Fine writes: > On 7 Aug 98 at 11:40, Fons Rademakers wrote: > > > > like Rene said, except for the standard ROOT examples and > > tutorials > > we don't yet have a real contrib area.
