[comp.sys.amiga.datacomm] AmigaUUCP 1.12

bobl@graphics.rent.com (Bob Lindabury) (03/04/91)

I noticed UUCP 1.12 was in the /amiga/incoming directory at
ab20.larc.nasa.gov.  I FTPed it to my system and am now running it.
However, all the version numbers in the file say 1.11.  Even the docs
say 1.11 as the latest version.  The only program I found to have the
1.12 designation was Dmail.  Does anyone know if this is indeed 1.12?

I don't know for sure, but something is funny.  (See below.)  Your best bet
would be to ask Matt himself, or post to alt.sys.amiga.uucp.

The funny part is that although I'm not running the 1.12 distribution (I'm
running 1.08), I do have a 1.12 POSTNEWS.  You apparently do not.  (The
1.12 postnews, btw, fixes a MAJOR bug that I discovered myself.)

They've been removed.  The latest version of Dillon's UUCP (really all of
Matt's stuff) is available via anonymous ftp from ftp.uu.net in
/amiga-sources/dillon/.  I don't plan to keep all the Dillon software on ab20,
since he can maintain the latest version of stuff on ftp.uu.net by himself...
