RE: posting of binaries in general (and ARC520 in particular)
There has been quite a bit of traffic in the last few weeks regarding
current versions of ARC and PKARC, compatibilities, etc. Included among
the postings were numerous requests for the latest versions of both.
I agree that it is probably better to "test the market" (so to speak)
before posting binaries to the net, but in this case, I think the
posting was warranted. I, for one, wanted to upgrade to version 5.20
(even though I have version 5.12 and rarely use ARC, having gotten
accustomed to the faster PKARC) since I occasionally distribute archives
to friends.
I don't ordinarily read any bulletin boards, so if it doesn't get posted
to USENET, I don't get it. I thought Dale's posting was both timely and
appropriate (BTW, more thanks to Dale for his 3D postings - my kids love
them :-).
