Hi. I believe we are still shooting for a Nov 1 release, though without reports of successful regression tests on more platforms I'm not sure we can do that. I know that at least some of those listed below are the active development platforms for some contributors, so those are probably covered but I need confirmation. So, if you have a platform you have tested or plan to have tested in the next few days please speak up. Now. Or at least Soon :) Here are the ones on the "currently supported" list (let me know if you have something running on another platform. Any Ultrix people out there still?): _ AIX 4.1.x-4.2 _ BSDi _ FreeBSD 2.2.x-3.x _ NetBSD 1.3 _ NetBSD 1.3 NS32532 _ NetBSD 1.3 Sparc _ NetBSD 1.3 VAX _ DGUX 5.4R4.11 m88k _ HPUX 10.20 _ IRIX 6.x _ Digital 4.0 _ linux 2.0.x Alpha x linux 2.0.x x86 _ linux 2.0.x Sparc x mklinux PPC750 _ SCO _ Solaris x86 _ Solaris 2.5.1-2.6 x86 _ SunOS 4.1.4 Sparc x SVR4 MIPS _ SVR4 4.4 m88k x Unixware x86 x Windows NT The porting info goes into the Admin Guide in the docs. I plan to freeze that one last, a few days before release to give Bruce et al a chance to polish the installation and release notes. The other docs will need to freeze earlier to give me a chance to generate hardcopy for v6.4. So the freeze schedule will be (again assuming a Nov 1 release, and I'm probably not giving myself enough time): Oct 26: freeze Programmer's Guide and Developer's Guide Oct 27: freeze User's Guide and reference pages Oct 28: freeze Admin Guide Oct 29-30: finish hardcopy, generate html I will be out of town Oct 31-Nov 1, so need to finish a day or two early. As it is, I should have frozen some docs by now to get this stuff done. So, if you have anything else to contribute or update for docs, SEND IT IN NOW. Or at least let me know it is coming soon. Or it will have to wait for v6.5... TIA - Tom
