bThanks for the Netmail inquiries into Mantissa 3.2. In stead of answering
all the question individually I have created this summary that should give
everyone the information that they need.
Mantissa is currently in final beta testing and is tentatively scheduled
for release during the first week in March. Release version will be
3.2.
Shareware price for mantissa is being increased from the current $15.00
to $30.00. All registered users ($15.00 Orders I have received with a
post mark prior to March 1, 1990, 00:01am will receive free updates.
These updates can be obtained in 1 of 3 ways.
1. A release version is FREQ from 226/200 or 350/90 using the
following syntax. Mant32.sit <password> The password is
the fist 4 characters of the filename mentioned in the cover
letter that accompanied your original mantissa disk.
2. A release version will be placed on Genie & AOL available for
downloading. This is will be password protected. The pass-
word is the fist 4 characters of the filename mentioned in the
cover letter that accompanied your original mantissa disk.
3. You can send me a SASE and a blank 800k floppy and I will
return you the latest Versions of all utilities that are
available for general release. Plus you will receive a
few extras, that are incomplete projects, but have various
sections in working order and will prove very useful not
only to you as sysop but your users as well.
.. If you have any questions or misplaced your cover letter
contact me via 226/200, 226/200.1 or M.LININGER on Genie.
