Juan,

Thanks... I did manage to recover my changes they were just buried behind a bunch of other stuff I had forgotten I did in the changes log.  I really like the way you've handled packages... perfect for how I've been using Cuis!  And we get version control done right pretty much for free :-)

Thanks
Phil

Specifically, I was doing some work in some packages that had been saved (but not recently) and managed to segfault the VM (my fault).  When I brought back up Cuis and browsed the changes (both for the core image and for the packages I was working on) there was nothing listed.  Are changesets supposed to be working for packages the same way they do for the core image?  If so, is there anything I need to do to explicitly enable them?
