1706.0. "Documentation Revision Dates?" by MAIL::CLAYTON (Merlin Clayton DTN 445-7217) Thu Oct 24 1991 12:05

Can someone please tell me what the current rev level of the MCC documentation
is along with the rev date?

I want to make sure that the doc that I have is current and up-to-date.

Thanks.

Merlin

    The most recent printed version supports DECmcc Version 1.1, and is
    dated March 1991.  (Look at your title and copyright pages.)
    
    The next version due out is the Version 1.2 EFT draft, which supports
    V1.2 and is undated (but due out Any Day Now).

Will there be a BookReader format? I Hope,I Hope,I Hope....8*)

    Bookreader for FCS, yes.  For EFT?  No, sorry.
1706.4I hate the sound of chain saws...KYOA::KOCHIt never hurts to ask...Wed Nov 20 1991 11:559
    Well, since the field test is delayed, is any of the doc set yet
    available for printing? We could be printing and reviewing the docs
    while we are waiting for the product.
    
    Has a switch been made on documentation preparation or is Interleaf
    still used? Isn't a field test of the Bookreader versions called for?
    This would help you get feedback on how well the converter works. We
    don't need it perfect (at least I don't) and I'd like to save a few
    trees and a few $$$ for Digital. Please consider it...
1706.5Just buzzing by...TNPUBS::JONGSteve Jong/T and N PublicationsWed Nov 20 1991 14:2117
    Note 63.15 announces that most of the EFT documents are already
    available as .PS files.
    
    We plan to issue the final Version 1.2 user documents (and a lot of the
    Developer's Toolkit documents as well) in Bookreader format.
    
    We never planned to issue the EFT documents in Bookreader format.  The
    conversion tool from Interleaf to Bookreader is still being tested, and
    there was insufficient time in the original schedule to convert the
    documents even if the tool worked.  However, the tool is looking good,
    and as a byproduct of the testing effort a number of DECmcc documents
    have been converted to Bookreader format.  You will note a few
    announcements to that effect in the topic titled "Documentation issues"
    (I do believe).
    
    If you have a preference for our next test, let us know.  Perhaps
    _DECmcc Use_?
