Noticed one of your pages mentions that >version 7.7 "was" released on 30 November 2000. Is this >version not yet available? Unidata McIDAS-X 7.7 is not yet available. I had the 7.7 web pages setup for the McIDAS workshop earlier this month but did not remove the links since I had been anticipating making a release "any day". I recently decided, however, to postpone the release until my ADDE server for the zlib-compressed NOAAPORT NIDS products was finished. My estimate of being finished by November 30 may slip again, but it should not go past Monday, December 4. I will be announcing the official release of 7.7 to the Unidata McIDAS community through our 'mcidas-x' email list.
