It is a near certainty. As a completely rewritten router, we expect, it may have some bugs, but I also suspect that we will be very glad to see it. There is no sign, however, that the router or any other aspect of Phoenix is in Beta test. This is a matter of concern. Since Protel now has a formal Beta program with NDA, it is possible that some Beta testing is going on, but it seems quite unlikely that wide-scope Beta testing, needed to give the program a serious workout to find subtle bugs and shortcomings, has begun. If there are only a few testers, it is not really Beta. http://www.protel.com/media/mr02_situs.htm [EMAIL PROTECTED] Abdulrahman Lomax Easthampton, Massachusetts USA * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * To post a message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * To leave this list visit: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/leave.html * * Contact the list manager: * mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] * * Forum Guidelines Rules: * http://www.techservinc.com/protelusers/forumrules.html * * Browse or Search previous postings: * http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected] * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
