The reason i started to look at toolstrip is because one of my applications
requires it. so i will find something else it doesnt support and work on
that. thanks for the link to the status.
however i do still need guidance on how i would commit anything i have
done..
I am a very fluent developer.. my linux skills are some what... non
existent.. but im slowly learning.. i managed to build mono so i cant be
doing too bad...
so svn and the whole community project thing are new to me.. any
tips/guidance will be greatly apreciated
