It is not obvious how we can make a 3.15 or 3.16 release. For example:
how can we install 3.15 on top of 3.14? Filenames are not the same
(e.g., MSK315.EXE vs KERMIT.EXE) and other files are never replaced
(KERLITE.EXE, KERMITE.EXE vs MSK315[MNL].EXE). In the case of 3.16,
there are only a lot of C, assembler and header files and a single
binary -KERMIT.EXE- in the ZIP file. Should we rename these files?
What about files never replaced (KER[LM]ITE.EXE or the MSK315[MNL].EXE)?
It seems that, even if we rename these files, there will be a mix
of 3.14/3.15/3.16 binaries and documentation files.
What is the recommended method for making the most up to date release?
Certainly C-KERMIT is easier to upgrade.
Cheers,
Igor.
