Yeah, I do that already. It's just that I feel bad most of the time asking someone to stop what they're doing (if they are doing anything) just so they can protect my map for me. And if there's a bug I need to fix, and I end up fixing it, I feel even worse when I ask them to reprotect it for me.
But I suppose that's how it goes for us Mac users. Is it hard to develop a protector for Macs, or is it just seen as not worth the time?
