Hello,
Thanks for this release !!
My only question is: is this release stable enough to be used on Linux-64 (See http://nux-64.ora-code.com)?
Or not?
Some weeks ago you told me a new version was coming that would fix the
problems on 64-bits, but I don't know if this is this one or a later one.
Thanks
