Re: False status indication with WinCvs 1.2

[David Wood]

I've seen this before; it's related to daylight savings time issues with 
Windows. WinCVS 1.3 has the fix, 1.2 doesn't. As far as I could tell it 
was an annoyance that killed performance and ruined the effectiveness of 
the in-pane modified reporting, but I couldn't think of a case where it 
was actually dangerous.

Nonetheless this means (for me) that 1.2 is DOA. You might want to be more 
specific about your reasons for needing it, others may be able to suggest 
alternatives...
