I noticed you can get DMD bundled with various libraries. I found you had to login to another web site, but the registery page has 3 must fill in textbox's that are crazy.

Where's that?
AFAIK nobody has permission to distribute DMD other than Walter.

Some others are allowed to distribute DMD (the Tango team, I think the EasyD thing), but I've never heard of a site requiring you to fill out info to get it.

Sounds like it's time to sharpen the pitch forks!

It's a Windows one, it's for dmd 1.030.

Oh, that's EasyD I think. By "crazy textboxes" do you mean the login screen? I don't remember having to log in before. Chris hasn't posted on the NGs in a while either. In any case, 1.030 is *rather* old, and the libraries that would come with would be just as old.

I mean by crasy text boxes three of the ones in the registery page, (for getting a log in), and I couldn't register because of them. If it's old and stuff, then why is it in the digital mars web site?

Because Walter's not very good at keeping things up to date? I dunno. File a report on bugzilla.

Also, if you can't answer the three questions at the bottom of the registration page for Firestorm, you are not enough of a nerd to register, I guess ;)
