I do not plan on just dropping it off and never working on it again. What
I meant to say was once SAMBA decided to incorporate these changes that
it would be my intention to keep them up to date. It would benefit
Thursby greatly to keep these change working and up to date at all time.
I would in fact believe that we would recommend this version to all our
customer and in doing so would want them to be bug free. Which would mean
we would have to keep updating the revs as SAMBA updates its revs.
Because I have never written a perfect piece of code yet I would think
that some how I would have to update this code. I am not sure how this is
done yet. My goal was to get a version that SAMBA could tie into one of
it's releases and then find out how I could stay in touch with the code.
