Hi Marcus, Good to meet you at the AMS conference in New Orleans! re: > I tried sending the email below to awips-support, but I am not white-listed. Actually, the message bounced since there is no email address named address@hidden. There is, however, address@hidden. As you have no doubt gathered, I drove your second email (this one) into our Inquiry Tracking system in the AWIPS department so that your request to get an early copy of AWIPS-II is tracked.
