Re: FTJava V0.13 released

Gah. This should of course have gone to the FTJava list, not to this
one... 
Ah well; doesn't matter too much.

You're welcome.

OK, good.

Not surprising, since the fighter code isn't finished yet... I wondered
if 
the added G1s were in compensation for their inability to use their 
fighters or something like that, but now I don't think so :-/

No worries... though he may want to change the name of this fleet 
eventually <g>

I was surprised to find the FB2 KV designs in there at all, yes...

Yes please :-)

Hm. Unless the names of the various files has been changed, the older 
versions should have been overwritten by the newer ones.

<short delay>

OK, now I've deleted and re-installed everything, so there *can't* be
any 
V0.12 ships left... the PAU "Entebee-class BC" is gone, but that's the
only 
corrected one I can see on a quick search.

>Can I send you the current directories and let you review them again?

If there's any risk that the "delete-and-reinstall everything" hasn't 
cleaned the V0.12 stuff out, by all means do so.
