Will there be an announcement on the list when the "other" OS kits are
ready to download? A couple of minutes ago I checked the OpenVMS kit and
see that its from 1-18-05.

Thanks,

The fix was written and compiled on May 24, I forgot the exact time but
it
was late in the day, US time. Then there is a whole process to create
and
test installation kits for each and every operating system we support.
Depending on the person responsible for the kit and how this person
works,
the date of the kit on the FTP server might be the date the kit was
created,
or the date it was copied to the FTP server. Person 1 might upload all
kits
to the FTP server, but outside of the FTP directory tree, and then copy
them
over to the FTP directory when testing is complete. This allows
colleagues
to access the kits ahead of release and help test them. Person 2 on the
other hand might just upload the kits when they are ready.

Either way, May 24 or 25 does not matter - it is the same version. When
you
load the DEBUG-SHOW-VERSION URL, you should see a compilation date of
May 24
or May 25.
