mohr@i90s2.ira.uka.de (Thomas Mohr) (04/12/91)

Hello,

there seems to be a new  prebeta-2.tar.Z file at the server.
Would someone explain the usual questions:
- Why _pre_beta ?
- When will beta be available ?
- Which changes will beta have to _pre_beta ?

Thanks.

   - Why _pre_beta ?

A couple of people volunteered to build the pre-beta snapshot with g++
and send us changes to incorporate in the beta release.  We put the
tar file there so that they could get the pre-beta snapshot.

   - When will beta be available ?

I don't know.  Probably soon.

   - Which changes will beta have to _pre_beta ?

Fixes to allow beta to compile better than pre-beta did.
