but still this will be a fork, which will be incompatible ...

Alexander notes: "- Background multitasking - accepted"

as far as I remember, Marco and Alexander were in contact
but I don't know if Marco's solution and Alexander's
solution are the same, similar or completely different.

So it might be necessary to check the behavior of BB 1.6rc6
in this respect.

applauded. I had some look at Marco's version. It also
adds paths to the environment, but as far as I understood
they were deliberately left out and it appears also to me
that Marco's current version serves his needs and his
logic of versioning, but it may be possible that this is
a matter of taste and philosphy ... and the spartanic
solution offered by the original (the network solution
resp. the command line option /use <directory>) is
at least sufficient. I did not find the time to fully
explore BrancoBox (as Marco finally called it).
