Are these also automatically placed at : prep.ai.mit.edu as a new patch level or are they consolidated into a single : patch and later used to produce pl75? In other words, do I need to extract : and apply every patch I see here, and hope I don't miss any, or can I go : to prep every month or so and get the latest and least buggy? : -- : Stacey Campbell - Stacey.Campbell@Eng.Sun.COM This is a good question and an important one too. At the moment, no patches are being placed at prep. My suggestion would be to place the critical bugs fixes (things which could cause core dumping or drastic drop in playing strength) as a consolidated patch at prep. Other new features and minor bug fixes will not be placed there, but will only appear when pl75 is released. Anytime the consolidated patch is updated on prep, a posting will appear here. Let me check with Stuart. Kong Sian
