Re: [mv] MV 3.15

[Dmitriy Katsman <dmk@affordablecomputers.com>]

Hmmm... interesting news...

Is 4.0 going to have on-the-fly features? also how compatible is it going to be with 3.14?
will we be able to pretty much take our current stores and copy it to 4.0?

Also, Mike... I'd be glad to incorparate those two routince (main:add_item and onfly... or something), but could you please give me the URL to download a BETA? or at least those two
files or just something?

thanks in advance,

Dmitriy
