I thought about it again, and I'll give 100$ to the person who'll fix this
bug.

I know this sum might seem ridiculous, but seriously it's the max I can
offer.

And if this bug is fixed, I'd like the patch to be integrated in Metakit
main source.

Seriously, I can't expecting someone to fix this bug for 100$. If this bug
is fixed by someone someday, I'll thank him with 100$, that's different. Let
say I put it in the pot. I already regret to have made that offer. Sounds
like I'm asking something...

Reading this list, I could trace people losing their data up to 2002, but
the origin of the corruption wasn't identified. I thought it was my
contribution to locate the source of the bug (and I lost many hair in the
battle). Now that the corruption source is well identified, why not warn
people ? Why ?

When I chose Metakit, several year ago, it was an actively maintained
project. It's barely the case anymore. At that time, a corruption issue
wouldn't have been tolerated.

I regret the turmoil that I've caused, but I don't regret a single word that
I've said. Call me rude if you want, and maybe I am.

If we had spent all this time and energy working together to implement
Pat's solution this would be a moot point.
