We asked the CM people to rename a subdirectory of a project. Head of CM reamed us out thoroughly: "Do NOT ask my people to write scripts! They are not programmers! YOU write the scripts and they will run them!" We wrote the script, and they ran it, with their privileges. Unfortunately, we omitted one directory level in a rather long path. So they deleted the entire project. -- Wes Groleau http://freepages.rootsweb.com/~wgroleau/Wes
