OK. I will (time allowing), add a patched wx2.5 tarball to Snake for use as our 'supported' version. Due to the changes
inwx, we should probably stick with this version (fixing any bugs we find ourselves) until 2.5 is formally released.
SoundOK? wxPython is a non-issue. We only use it for running XRCed (the XRC dialogue editor), and that uses wxPython
2.3on my system.

This probably won't wrk with the current build system which we (well, Adam) recently ripped 2.4 support out of. I don't
believeadding a simple 2.4 option will be a problem however - I will look at it tomorrow (again, time allowing).

Sounds like a plan to me. I will create an account on Snake for you to upload your work to so you are not dependent on
anyof us.
