Sometimes it is okay to switch the list if you find out that there is a better list for it, this is why I've copied the devel@ list and set the "followup-to:" header to it. > I've subscribed to the devel list today, but I think I'll continue this > thread where I posted it originally (i.e., in the users-en@ list).

Message-ID: <123d590b0905310805l75076f35mc08f0c75d053319b@mail.gmail.com> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 gpg4win support / build team -- I notice that the WinPT version included in gpg4win is still WinPT 1.2.0 . I went to WinPT's site to ask a question about GPG group support. While at their site, I noticed that WinPT does not even distribute WinPT 1.2.0 any more. WinPT is at 1.3.0 and 1.4.0. I can only assume that 1.4.0 is their unofficial (test) release, and that 1.3.0 is their latest stable version (based upon the standards at other tool distribution pages). I really like the gpg4win suite, and would like to update to WinPT 1.3.0, but I don't think that WinPT 1.3.0 would install into the gpg4win structure. Is there a technical problem with adding WinPT 1.3.0 or 1.4.0 to the gpg4win suite?
