[Rumpus-talk] Rumpus 6.2 Beta 1

[John O'Fallon]

Rumpus 6.2 Beta 1 is now available as a private download for members  
of the Rumpus-Talk mailing list only.

Unlike the last couple of major Rumpus updates, this version does not  
include significant revisions to the basic server engine or existing  
functionality.  Also, the new features included in this version have  
been fairly extensively tested and documented.

In other words, if you install this version, it should not mess up any  
existing server operation, and even the new features are ready for  
prime time, I believe.  The usual caveat about running pre-release  
software in production environments applies as always, but I believe  
this version is very solid.  If one or more of the new features are  
appealing to you, it just might be worth trying this Beta, even on a  
production server.

If you download and install the Beta, *please let me know*.  I would  
really appreciate a note telling me which of the new features you  
like, what works, and what doesn't.  Seriously... Drop a note to "support at maxum.com 
".

IMPORTANT! If your Rumpus serial number is "RP-80-XXX" or "RR-80-XXX"  
or below, this version will come up as "expired".  If your Rumpus  
license is older and you would like to test this version, open the  
Install Server window and enter a Serial Number of "RD-000-082" with  
the Validation Code "69327".  This will allow you to run Rumpus 6.2  
until November 30.
