   My problems have no relevance to the UTF-8 discussion. But, since you asked...   
      
    g0> The upgrade instructions are just a list of commands lines to   
    g0> run that you can paste directly onto a command line. There really isn't   
    g0> anything else to do other than that for A47.  What events that come with   
    g0> A47 did you have problems with?   
      
   Um.../fidopoll vs ./mis poll? I'm still fairly certain that this was my biggest   
   problem.   
      
   Having said that, the changes to 'Interval' events threw me for a loop, too!   
   Suddenly, all off my 'Interval' events were happening every five minutes,   
   instead of five minutes after every hour. You didn't mention this in your   
   update notes. I'm not the only McNoob to be confused by this, either.   
      
   Again, I must be clear: this is intended as 'constructive' criticism, not as   
   insult. I wouldn't choose any other base but Mystic for PiBBS!   
      
    g0> For example this is the upgrade procedure from A47 to A48:   
    g0>   
    g0> Run: install replace c:\mystic   
    g0> Run: mutil -run packfilebases   
    g0>   
    g0> That's it.   
      
   Sir, I would suggest that the upgrade from a46 to a47 is not the same, at   
   all...You kinda broke a lot of stuff in that particular upgrade. And you've   
   already admitted as much. Perhaps, I am simply adding my feedback too late?   
      
   Either way, don't let me slow you down! Clearly, you are working harder than I   
   am! I have exactly zero alpha releases of my work.
