Okay,

I'm confused now (playing catchup again). So people like me can keep up with 
this we now have two branches of cvs for cinstall - right?  Chris' message 
seems to imply that precinstall is the version of setup that would be most like 
what we would get from the web page as an average user - without any of the new 
stuff but then Michael' message seems to imply that the new stuff is broken in 
the precinstall version.  

Which is it or where did my interpretation go goofy.  Is it the 
*Pre*vious*Cinstall* or the *Pre*liminary*Cinstall*?
