Try 4.2.1 (was: 4.3 binaries for linux?)

[Bernhard Reiter]

Hi Rich,

some personal issues are important for grass development!
The management style you propose is largely unusable 
for free software development.

I admit that I have been wrong about the 4.2.1/4.3 version issue.
My apology bounced from the mailinglist. I will resent it after this mail.

	Bernhard


ps.: Let me clarify some points in public has you have made them here:

Well your experience can be different. I can show you the mails about
the sun and other resources if you are interested.

I have been adding parts to GRASS for about a year, I have not seen much
source code which has been written by people of the University of Baylor. 
http://www.geog.uni-hannover.de/grass/coop.html lists 15 developers,
only three of them have email addresses at Baylor University.

This might be a missunderstanding on your part as I know some of the
persons involved in GRASS development and what they do.
The impression that most coding takes place at Baylor University is not
correct. But this shall not lower the contribution of Baylor University!
As far as I know they are doing a lot of support and try really hard 
to get more resources for GRASS development. This is a good thing.
