A couple months ago, we discovered and fixed a bug that kept people from using the attribute table manager in GRASS 6. This could not be fixed in the GRASS 6.4.2 code because it is frozen. But the recommendation was to have binary maintainers fix it in their distributions. William and I fixed it for the Mac. Has it been fixed in the binary distribution for Windows?

I don't know anything that it was fixed by William. Anyway this bug is
not included in relbr64 (ie 6.4.3) so I would say that we should focus
ourselves on releasing 6.4.3 let's say after summer (sep?) or probably
earlier rather then spending time on fixing bugs in already release
versions (which is very non-standard way).

I was confused. It was a digitizer issue that was fixed. We all (including you) fixed it in the binary. The table manager is a different issue.

I agree with getting 6.4.3 out the door fast.
