My nail just told me you hit it square on the head! Damned rural America;
we should be dense enough to have a split plant also `[8-))

Thanks, Karl.

|We are running 3.7.2c3 on some of our PM3s (our Milwaukee plant and half of
|Chicago) and are testing a non-released (ie: non-public) version on our
|other half of our Chicago plant.
|
|The "test" version has exactly one problem that I know of that is VERY
|serious and that will probably bite the majority of you. If it wasn't
|for that I'd tell you to ask for that version of code if you're having
|trouble with b15, but with that problem in there I can't recommend it.
|
|People running "integrated" ISDN/analog are in for more trouble; NEITHER
|of these releases is, IMHO, suitable for that environment right now. We
run
|split plant, and as it turns out that happens to be both important and
|good for us at the present time (or we'd be in a lot more serious trouble).

|
|b13, which was the prior-to-b15 release, lacks V.90 but is the most stable
|V.34 and KFlex version we've seen so far. It has, however, broken SLIP.
|
|The "non-public" version is easily the best around right now EXCEPT for the
|one crippling problem. If Lucent will STOP SCREWING AROUND with trying to
|get other things working in that version, fix this ONE problem (which can't
|be all that hard to do, as this is a new bug and WAS working in all
versions
|we've had, public beta and private, for a long time) and get that out to
|people the 90% percentile of trouble should be fixed.
