What's New for February 23, 1999

• TBrowseDirectoryDlg v2.56 updated in My Stuff section.
• System Information Forms v1.0.0.1 updated in Others' Stuff section.
• Startup Manager v1.1.2.9 updated in Freeware section.
• All of my components have been updated, except for TSystemTreeView because of a soon to be released new version. This update changes only the copyright/license text in the header comments (see next item). The intent remains the same, I've just tried to make it clearer. Also, the DFSAbout.pas unit included in all components was updated for the new web site address, and the DFS.INC file was updated to add $DEFINEs for C++Builder 4. The components have not yet been tested with C++Builder 4 as I don't have it yet. I'll let you know when I have tested (and fixed if necessary) them for use with C4. Because the changes do not involve the code of the components at all, the version numbers have not been changed and you don't really need to bother with the download unless you are bored. :)
• Added DFS License page to the Miscellaneouse section to clarify exactly what you can and can not do with DFS source code.
• Please take a moment to respond to the DFS Support Poll (it's only one question). You can find a link to it on the main page at www.delphifreestuff.com.
• Growing pains: The email update list subscription form didn't work from the new www.delphifreestuff.com site. This has been fixed, so if you subscribed from the new site with this form, you'll have to do it again.
• Growing pains 2: The error log shows a lot of file requests coming in from the old www.pobox.com/~bstowers/delphi site. I had this set up to route it to the new site, but the path won't map correctly since I don't use the "/delphi" directory part on the new site. Anyway, because of all the failed downloads, I thought it best to re-map the pobox address back to the members.aye.net site where the links won't be broken. Because of this, I want to stress again that if you are using the old addresses (www.pobox.com/~bstowers/delphi/ or members.aye.net/~bstowers/delphi/) you should update them to the new site as soon as possible. Also, if you see them linked from anyone elses site, drop them a line nicely asking that they update to the new address. The old address should be good for at least a month or two, but I'm not guaranteeing anything beyond that.
