Date: Fri, 5 Jan 2007 02:48:24 -0600 When 2.5.1 was originally presented, it was presented as "2.5 with the charging issue fixed," was how I meant the "supposed." And by "the forums" I meant "users host their own builds where they can, and keep updates restricted to the unsupported section of the forum." I just don't feel it's appropriate any more that it's hosted in the wiki as it's moved from "a basic bugfix on 2.5" to a full "unsupported build" and as well still maintains the 2.5.1 misnomor which is misleading even if it does say clearly that it's private and unsupported, as at this point it's no longer just a bugfix but a modification.
