> Dear colleagues,
>
> we have made the files available for downloading ABCD v1.2t at the URL :
> http://abcd.netcat.be/files/
>
> This page presents all 5 variations and leads to a short form to be filled
> in - which allows us to get an idea of who is downloading.
> After filling in the form (only doing this seriously will give us real
> information to share !) the download link will pop up.
> Beware : depending on variation chosen, the package is in between 62 and
> 76 Mb size. If this poses severe problems for many users, we will see if
> the packages can be divided up into smaller chunks, e.g. Apache/PHP
> separately, WWW separately and bases separately.
>
> As this is the first time we avail ABCD from a non-BIREME server we have
> no experience with the load on the server this page will create, so bear
> with us if things might go a bit slow or the server is not always
> responding immediately.
> Also be aware of the fact that the whole system now is over 10000
> folders/files (!), and multiply this with some different computer
> environments (Windows, Linux, 32-bits, 64bits...), so : no, we didn't check
> again every single file, sorry. That is why we need feedback from voluntary
> testers in real conditions.
>
> Attached to this message goes a document with some instructions. It is
> recommended to read it first, esp. the section on how to install ABCD along
> with your possibly existing files.
> Your experiences, both with downloading and installing and then later on
> with using the new version, will be very useful if shared in this
> discussion list !

> Dear colleagues
>
> We are preparing to publish 1.2t ABCD version (beta) for all interested in
> the list to see how this version fixes and incorporates a lot of (new)
> features and functions.
>
> We have had three rounds of tests with the help of a dozen people since
> last November, and we have reached a point where we thought it best to
> submit to a more general level and demanding tests by all colleagues who
> wish to do so.
>
> This version will be in beta for a few weeks while we verify the reports
> and comments you make. Finally we will then post it as an official version
> and will replace the current version.
>
> The download can be done from an address that Egbert communicate this
> weekend, so you can access it from next Monday.
> To download the file you will be requested to fill in a form for the sole
> purpose of having a record of what people are working and which might be
> possible collaborators.
>
> It will be available for Windows and Linux. The Windows version comes with
> Apache 2.4 and PHP 5.3 pre-configured. For Linux the configuration is to be
> done in the dedicated Apache installation (/etc/apache2).
> In the download package some setup instructions will be given.
>
> It is assumed that people who download the application will have
> previously installed and gained some previous experience with ABCD, and/or
> have some computer knowledge.
>
> As it is not the final version, we have no ability to give basic support
> for the installation of ABCD to people without the necessary skills, that
> kind of support will be published after the official version. What we are
> asking is a review by our ISIS-community colleagues with some level of
> expertise, and there are many, as we know.
