29.0. "Update to V1.0 please !" by RDGE21::MORRIS () Fri Aug 29 1986 11:14

    Can someone put up a decent version of Vax Notes on this machine?
    
    We are running V1.0 Sdc and whilst we have no trouble talking to
    the rest of the world , the since command goes haywire on this
    conference.
    
    For a copy of the kit , go look at the Vax Notes Notes file , there
    are locations in there for the V1.0 sdc kit and the V1.1 FT kit.
                   
    Thanks Chris...

29.1Even more goodiesRDGE21::MORRISFri Aug 29 1986 11:196
    Oh , by the way if you do put up V1.0 you will be able to use ENOTES
    which provides a "batch mode" callable interface into Vax Notes.
    
    This makes notewatching far more productive . I have have the kit
    if you are interested.
    
29.2Coming soonRDGE28::KEWJerry built systemsFri Aug 29 1986 12:339
Check RDGE28::TOOLBOX, hit kp7 etc, it's already installed on U28 in TBX:

well worth using and speeds up notes update considerably, apparently 
someones even written a tpu section which allows you to 'walk' through your 
notes extractions just like you're in notes for real. The issue of the 
notes v1.1 upgrade has already been discussed in this conference. It'll all 
be well next week. You're not still running v1.0 are you Chris?? :-)

29.3And there it was installedRDGE21::MORRISFri Aug 29 1986 12:477
    Never let it be said that we dont accept the challenge.
    
    The EUC cluster is running T1.1 as of 11:40 today.
    
    So the answer is no Jerry !!
    
    Cheers Chris...

  This procedure allows you to select which version of VAX NOTES you
  want to install.  The available versions are:

	V1.0	The current SDC release (VAX/VMS V4.2 or later)

I think Vicky might be a little busy at the moment.  I suggest we wait
until next week for upgrading!

29.8Reason for upgradeRDGE43::KEWJerry built systemsTue Sep 30 1986 15:024
It appears that ther are known bugs in notes 1.0 which causes ENOTES
(the batch extractor, v fast, which we should all use :-)  ), to hang.
Upgrade to v1.1 clears this, and there is a network wide request for all 
systems to update to v1.1. Could we upgrade ??
29.9VAXnotes V1.1 please?RDGE43::KERRELLDo not disturbThu Oct 02 1986 16:535
Another bug in V1.0 causes your unseen count to be zapped.

Howsabout it then?

Dave.
29.10VAXnotes V1.1 pretty please?RDGE28::KERRELLDo not disturbThu Oct 23 1986 14:160
29.11VAXnotes T1.1 now installed on ADG ClusterRDGE00::DRAPERSteve DraperWed Nov 05 1986 14:3617
    Well Brothers and Sisters,
    	We now got VAXnotes Version T1.1 installed on the ADG cluster.
    Note (ha ha) that the version is T1.1 - not V1.1 (i.e. this is a
    field test version; as yet there is no released V1.1).
    
    	As well as fixing some old and loved bugs, this release creates
    some new (and soon to be loved) ones. I strongly suggest you read
    the files
    
    			NOTES011.RELEASE_NOTES
    			NOTES_SHORTGUIDE.MEM
    
    	both in SYS$HELP:
    
    Happy scribbling,
    	steve
    
29.12Thanx Steve.RDGE43::KERRELLDo not disturbWed Nov 05 1986 15:300
