  Bug Tracker 21:48 27/07/2004

While I was away on my year out I recieved quite a few emails reporting bugs and feature requests, to many for me to keep track of. From now on I will place any bugs I recieve on the bug tracker, if I dont you can create a login and register the bug yourself and leave it new(unasigned). This should hopefully give me a much more central and organised way to keep track of the bugs.

  WebDec 0.42 Released 19:00 29/12/2002
