Re: [Openexr-devel] zlib and Carbon build

[Drew Hess]

Only Paul and I have direct access to check things into CVS, so you can 
just send either one of us the change (or the details on how to do it, if 
Paul hasn't already figured it out), and we'll check it in.

We'll keep supporting OS 9 as long as it's possible without any major 
effort (which, at this point, appears to be the case), but I don't think 
we'll bend over backwards.
