Many people on this don't hear from very very often.That's because basically I haven't had any real issues. I also come from the oldschool of trial and error, and quite frankly have been able to figure everythingout that way (even discovering some cool things along the way). As an example, you could look at a site which I have been keeping underwraps. Try http://Chat.Embark.com/newchat/signin.nmpl This chat interface is all webcatalog, coded from gound up, and is replacinganother webchat we wrote using Netcloak. The traffic on the netcloak site andthe webcat site are about 1.5 to 2 million connections per month and sing alonghappily. I have a list of features in the works, but am limited by time ratherthen the technology to implement them. Webcat started off in mind my as being way overpriced, but then became astandard tool for development and worth the money hands down. I haven't evenswitched to 3.0 as it would open too many doors for me right now that I justcan't afford to open. Not problems but rather capabilities, and I am too damnbusy to be tempted on that level :) I hope your descision works best for you. I know it would kill me :) Good luck Alex
