OK. I think it would be good if they were cleaned up, but if issues do crop up, it's something to look out for.

I had noticed them and I seem to recall after researching that I concluded they are hidden/temporary folders used by the editor? But hadn't noticed that it causes any problems with duplicating projects although there have been problems with duplicating projects which I thought Tom worked on and resolved.

We use the same media manager/uploader so suspect it has created them for some reason. Beyond that though I have no idea and haven't come across them in testing... Maybe Tom or Ron has seen them but i'd then be surprised that it hasn't caused Ron some problem in his testing...

Subject: [Xerte-dev] .quarantine and .tmb files

Just had a user who couldn't duplicate a project: on inspection the project's media folder had two sub folders, both empty, called .quarantine and .tmb. Deleting these folders allowed the project to be duplicated again.

Can anyone shed any light on where these came from?
