They're both dead in the water so don't get your hopes up.

For me, until Arca becomes 64-bit and multi-user, it's still "crippled" for
my personal everyday use.  You can fudge multi-user by slapping on
Security/2 but the 32-bit you can't work around.

I love computers and electronics, especially my beloved amateur radio, but I
also like to get outside too so cars came naturally to me.  These days, I'm
looking at getting into fishing as a side hobby since I'm evidently in
fishing country out here.

Later,
