4331.0. "New version of this conference coming soon..." by IOSG::PYE (Graham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's Apprentice) Fri Jul 08 1994 18:55

    I'll be releasing a new version of this conference, which I have nearly
    finished creating, early next week.
    
    The cluster holding this conference will be rebooted one day next week
    (probably Tuesday 12th July) and when the date is confirmed, I'll use
    that opportunity to switch conferences.
    
    The new file will have the same name as the old one, and the old one
    (this one!) will be renamed to IOSG::ALL-IN-1_V30, so it's important
    that you update the pointer in your notebook, or you won't see any new
    notes until about 10,000 have been written to the new version.
    
    More details later.

    PS New version is currently IOSG::ALL-IN-1_31, but it's writelocked.

4331.1Reminder - New version of the conference!IOSG::PYEGraham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's ApprenticeTue Jul 12 1994 11:1635
    I'm sorry to bore regular readers of the conference by keeping on
    repeating this, but I'm worried that if people don't realise the
    conference is being renamed, they'll suddenly stop seeing new notes and
    be confused.
    
    So, sometime before 12:00 UK time on Wednesday, proceed as follows:
    
    If you wish to maintain the previous version of this conference in your
    notebook along with the unseen map then you should modify this entry to
    your notebook after the switch so that you have access to it and the
    unseen map and markers are maintained:
    
        Notes> MODIFY ENTRY ALL-IN-1/NAME=ALL-IN-1_V30/FILE=IOSG::ALL-IN-1_V30
    
    The new version of IOSG::ALL-IN-1 can then be added to your notebook by
    pressing the SELECT or keypad 7 keys on your terminal, whilst reading
    this note, or by typing:
    
    	Notes> ADD ENTRY IOSG::ALL-IN-1
    
    There are a variety of 'overhead' notes taking up the first 20 topics
    of the new conference.  Readers of this conference may wish to skip
    over them by doing a SET SEEN/BEFORE=12-JUL-1994 once they have entered
    the new conference.
    
    If you do not wish to keep the previous version of the conference in
    your notebook then you only need to use the SET SEEN command as above
    to reset the SEEN map so that you will see new notes and replies. Note
    that if you don't do this, you won't see *ANY* new notes or replies.
    
    The timing of this change in files coincides with the release of
    ALL-IN-1 V3.1 fairly closely but the new version will support ALL
    previous versions as well.
