<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:8.0pt;font-family:"Comic Sans MS"">What’s your preference? I played around with MS4W a few times setting up some systems for other folks. I have not looked at any of the new flavors of things as of yet. I myself
tend to leave things run unless they break (and can’t be easily repaired) or some new capability is required.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">Hello,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left:.5in">It seems that there has been some chatter about people abandoning MS4W in favor of other distributions. I was just wondering what the developers stance is on this issue. Is GeoMOOSE going to stick with MS4W (for
windows) or will it also go another direction?<o:p></o:p></p>
