Attn: PROGRAMMERS - new rules on the OS

(1 / 1)


All programmers are asked to ALWAYS get the latest version of the OS
from Flanagan/Lipson/Albaugh as you start a project. In fact, 
if you are in a project that has not reached Focus group, please CONVERT to the
latest OS. Also, please read all the applicable documentation.
Bob, Peter, and Mike put quite a bit of work in the latest version of the
OS to make it easier to configure and hopefully more user friendly. 

In the future please plan to update your game to the newest release of the
OS at least right after Focus group time (or equivalent if your project
skips focus). 

Think of this as a professional courtesy to your co-workers that have developed
the OS to help you. If that doesn't work for you, think of it as a prerequiste
for your next raise (just kidding, I think).
