'Community Beta' has lost its way

[Bernard Devlin]

Hi Chipp,

I didn't identify the bug.  It was identified and logged as a bug 18  
months ago by different people (several others on the list have been  
talking about problems with "write to process" on OS X as far back as  
2003).

There are a whole class of applications that could be written if this  
bug was fixed.

The problem concerns reading from and writing to the process on OS  
X.  If you're on Windows or Linux, it appears to work OK.

I'm very glad for the all the people who's bugs are being squashed,  
and who have been privileged to discussions with Bill about their  
bugs  :-)
