Release 1.6d is now being distributed to all the 1.6 sites; please refer to my previous posting ("Changes from release 1.6c to 1.6d") for a description of what has been changed. This release fixes, among other things, most of the mailing loops that are going on with JANET mailers, two more (CPU) loops, yet another VM/XA compatibility problem, the annoying incorrect complaint about VERS9001, and a compatibility problem with LISTEARN. Release 1.6d also introduces the first "official" (ie non-prototype) version of the User Directory Database; unfortunately, I still have about 50% of the documentation left to be written, so I am not going to "advertise" this new service for a while. The new manuals (LISTUDD and LISTUDDA) have been added to the list of available documents; when they are ready, I will either PUT them on all the 1.6d servers, or include them with the 1.6e code, depending on when I manage to finish them.
