RE: [Pythoncard-users] PythonCardPrototype release 0.5.1

[Kevin A. <al...@se...>]

My apologies to anyone attempting to download 0.5.1 and not finding the
file. As of 7:45 pm PST the file still hasn't shown up on SourceForge.
Normally, I don't post about a file upload until it is available, but I hit
Send early this time. SourceForge appears to be doing some upgrade or going
through growing pains the last few days, at least I'm having a hard time
reaching the site a lot of the time. My guess is they have also changed the
batch procedure for file uploads because I've never had it take more than an
hour or so and usually it is less than fifteen minutes. If it doesn't show
up by tomorrow morning my time, I'll repost and email the SF admins.
