That is very good news, indeed. I hope some thought has been given to the provision of the man-hours which will be needed, so that this this package can be installed in a very short time after its arrival.

Jim: These issues you noted are primarily with the software that supports all our reflectors/lists. (Lyris) We have kept this version running for longer than we probably should have but put off investing in an upgrade as long as possible. As discussed in the 2005 Plan we are proposing to upgrade to a more current version of this software in early 2005. 73, Barry, N1VXY -----Original Message----- From: Weaver, Jim K8JE (DIR, GL) Sent: Wed 12/29/2004 7:24 PM To: arrl-odv Cc: Subject: [ARRL-ODV:11679] Re: WHAT IS HAPPENING WITH OUR REFLECTORS? Dave, Tnx for your note. I can understand that such things happen. The concern this raises for me, however, is that this is not merely a single occurrence over a very brief time span. Rather, we seem to have been having issues of this same general type popping up fairly regularly. What is being done to address these issues?

Jim, we did have problems with the lists that are currently being addressed. As the accumulated messages spool out there will be duplicate numbers assigned, so don't be surprised if you see different messages bearing the same number.

Dave, There must be "a couple" of glitches in the ODV reflector and maybe also the OD reflector. I sent a message (of little value, admittedly) to ODV about 6:30 PM EST this evening. On returning checking for E-mail at 10:30 PM, I realized this message is still not delivered. It was about a week ago as I recall that Bob Vallio had a similar problem with delayed delivery of messages. In view our history of missing message number, duplicated message numbers, delayed messages and who-know-what-other-glitches, can I assume that strong effort is being made to rectify these problems?
