Subject: ZCPR3 Notes

Two of the ZCPR3 Phase 1 release packages have been received at their
destinations, and reports back are quite good.  Echelon has installed the
new system on several machines now, and no errors have been encountered.
All utilities check out as far as they have been tested so far.  The only
complaint has been that a few typos were found in the installation manual
and the HLP files, but the typos do not impact meaning or present any
misinformation - they are merely cases like two "the" phrases in a row.
All HLP files will be corrected when they are incorporated into the books.

Lt Col Carter at AFIT, WPAFB, has brought up ZCPR3 after only a few hours
of effort.  He had prior knowledge of ZCPR2, and his reports were that with
this knowledge, ZCPR3 came up without any problem.  The BIOS mods were along
the line of ZCPR2 and the installation manual was complete with all necessary
detail.  Lt Col Carter brought up ZCPR3 without any instruction from me,
just using the manuals.  I think that this illustrates the
completeness of the manuals.  He also reported some typos in the
installation manual, but, again, they were minor.

I have completed copying all sets of disks in my possession now,
so 4 sets of disks should go out Monday or Tuesday.  Will let
you know when this happens and to whom.

Phase 2 of the ZCPR3 release should happen in a few weeks, and then
the books will come out (Phase 3).  Again, details on events as they
happen.
