Re: [ecf-dev] Product Exporting with Software Update Feature 
Scott,
Thank you for the suggestions. The net is that the "hello world" app
does export as expected when using classic 3.6.0 and no additional
downloading of ECF.
The next step is to package some real ECF functionality. I will let the list
know if there are any issues.
Many thx.
- Bill
