Subject: THE modem program

I was just looking over the most recent simtel20 CPM CRCLST copy and
noticed that the infamous MDM7** series is up to 724! Good grief!!
Is this the ballyhooed (sp?) version that was to replace Irv Hoff's
or is this something else? When were the other versions (briefly) put
on the system? Is there any reason for someone who seldom uses home 
remote file transfer to give up on version 712 or so and update to
724 (or is it 725 by now (726?))? If this isn't the new radically
altered MDM program will one of these soon be?

Pardon the questions but the last reference I remember anyone making to
the net specifically about the MDM stuff mentioned that version 720
would be completely different and better (in some way or other) than
the stuff originally done by half a dozen people, Irv Hoff in
particular. I was rather surprised to see what appeared to be a
continuation rather than a jump in the series.
