I talked to the aminet folks. And it seems the xxx2iso files were replaced in
the ftp moderation queue on the same day as your files were uploaded, before
they could approve them. Bad luck I guess.

The normal procedure on Aminet is supposed to be that they rename the file. But
it seems they just replace it without further thought at times or that the files
can be replaced while in their ftp queues. I'll suggest to them that I always
add "_os4" or similar to the filename before sending it to them.

However, just use the aminet filename field on the submit page if you want to be
sure.

aha OK...
I see. The same thing happened with my XYZ2ISO converter tools, hehe, all
versions (the MOS and 68k versions) ended up on Aminet, before mine, that I bet
they where based on. Well well, such is life, I guess I will have to reupload
them to Aminet.

Spot: I've decided to not allow _os4 _aos4 and similar in OS4Depot filenames. If
it's on OS4Depot it's OS4 compatible. You can use the Aminet filename field to
specify an aminet filename.

nice little program! its really spiced up my SimplePlay readme already, and will
do so for my other programs too. I might make my shell echo something upon
opening. quite a fun little thing. :)
