Hm, why not publicly? Security through obscurity is a discredited philosophy.

its bugs. just bugs. no security even involed here, its just an icon library!

Authers dont have time to trawl through every single Amiga web site/ maillist
or newsgroup to pick up individual moans or compliants about their code.
i know. been there, done that.

whats so hard with emailing the author?? even a one-liner saying
what the problem is, and/or how you saw/caused the problem???

From the Warning/FAQ:

PLEASE USE ONE OF THE OVERMENTIONED SYSTEMS AND GET RID OF YOUR OLD CRAPPY HARDWARE.

...sigh. Great advice. Toss over $1,000 in hard-to-find hardware to run freeware eyecandy.

And don't forget: Pretending to make money from a community who's trying to survive like Amiga community is simply SAD.

I know that's a strong advice, but people complaining of PI slowness just caused me to write such sentences. If you with "hard to find $1000 hardware" mean the Pegasos please note that Amithlon or UAE JIT are more than enough to fully enjoy PowerIcons 68K at full speed :)

But you're right: those machines are really hard to find. If BBRV didn't present me with a Pegasos, maybe now I would be still here waiting to have one :(
