you're right ... may I just suggest to add - for idiots such as myself -
a warning that after downloading and untarring the file as a standard

I was a bit sceptical trying the CVS because it will work in a
production environment ... however, as it is close to be released as
stable, I decided to give it a try and upgrade then.

Howver, I could not access CVS as our beloved firewall does not allow
port 2401 (cc to IT guys), but I fetched the current.tar.gz package
which is of today. I need to say the install went a bit smoother than
2.4.0 ... and it succeeded! So now, ...

... I just logged into OME and as far as I can judge, everything looks
fine ... is there anything specific that I can do to test if
mod_perl1.99 is working fine for me?

Thanks,
