Re: [certi-dev] Trying to use CERTI with regions

[Mattias Helsing]

Hello Eric, sorry for bothering you about this. I just rediscovered
this thread myself and thought I'd get some closure and some input for
a possible future project of ours.
So did you ever get my test program running? Is there something else I
can do to help you fill in the blanks?
cheers
Mattias
