IMPORTANT NOTES ABOUT THIS PRERELEASE (March 13, 1999)
-------------------------------------
! It's strongly recommended that you make a backup of the whole
! YAM directory before you start the installation. The format of
! the configuration files has changed, so you can't go back
! and use preview 5 or 6 if you haven't saved your old files!
This pre-release fixes many bugs of the last version and contains
a couple of new features and improvements.
If you encounter any problems, make sure that you've installed
all the MUI libraries from this archive. German speaking users
must install the included version of the YAM.catalog.
***************************************************************
This version of YAM 2.0 is still in beta stage. It's
very likely that some functions don't work as expected.
The final version of YAM 2.0 will be different
from this prerelease in these points:
- Known bugs fixed
- Localized for many other languages
- More icon sets and example scripts included
The release date is not known yet. Go to the YAM
website and register for updates if you want to
be notified when the final version is ready.
