Re: Defective PTF link

[Jerry Adams <jerry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Paul,


I noticed the same problem here when I read the Defect list.  I had the 
same reaction and decided to ignore it.


I put the latest Cume on both systems here within the last month plus 
the Hiper that came out at the same time (sorry, forget which one).  And 
now MF39123 shows as Superseded by MF39361, which is in an 'Installed' 
state (not perm applied).  MF39361 shows MF33150 as a co-req and MF34473 
and MF36280 as reqs.


BTW, do you really think you can make the transition from freezing your 
buns off in Chicagoland to frying 'em off in Tejas?  Actually, just 
checked and the temp doesn't seem that bad (94-97 this weekend) and the 
humidity should be a lot less the further away from the Lake you get.
