 * i wanted to like this plugin so much, and i spent allot of time fixing a few 
   little bugs that i was capable of fixing and spending too much time customizing
   templates. in the end however, it seems very BROKEN! looks like it badly needs
   updating. using permalinks is frustrating nightmare with filebase – somehow it
   even breaks page links in specific cases.
 * clicking the catagory links with permalinks enabled: 404 in certain cases
 * trying to download a file with permalinks: 404 always
 * enabling permalink compatibility: useless
 * resync: useless
 * resyncing filebase on one occasion taged 2 files as not found and then doubled
   the number of files to 4 – 2 not found and 2 ok – couldn’t d/l any of them!
 * i GIVE UP!!!
 * shame too, because this looks like it could be the best of the file managers.
   you can tell allot of thought went into this, though i thing having to switch
   between 2 config pages is annoying

 * I’m sorry for keeping your waiting for the new update so long. Try it out, changed&
   fixed so much. Of course the latest version is never free of bugs, but I should
   have some time now to react on your feeedback.
