The recursion limit is gone. Way to go, Gustavo! I suspect we all owe you a beer (hic!). ;-) Gustavo> Now, for the question... Gustavo> <jumping frenetically> Can I commit!? Can I commit!? </> If we weren't already at b1 I'd say go for it. With the expectation of only one more beta though, I'm not sure. I'd like to see a third beta or something else which would insure it gets plenty of testing. Perhaps you could build a test coverage version of the interpreter using gcc, run just the re regression tests and see if there are some lines of the changed code which are not being properly exercised. That would suggest where more tests are warranted. Skip
