From: Edward Brocklesby [ejb@goth.net] Sent: Monday, November 24, 2003 9:03 PM To: Info-VAX@Mvb.Saic.Com Subject: ircII EPIC for OpenVMS Alpha 1.0.1 PR #5 release ircII-EPIC is an IRC (Internet Relay Chat network -- think massively multi-user PHONE) client for Unix systems, which also runs on VMS. I don't normally post these announcements here, but I'm sure there are more people who would be interesting in ircII than are currently using it, and since PR5 is approaching a 'stable' release, I'd be interesting in some wider testing. The following announcement was posted to the EPIC mailing list earlier today: From: Edward Brocklesby To: vms-epic@epicsol.org Cc: list@epicsol.org Subject: [EPIC]EPIC4 1.0.1 (VMS Edition) Preview Release #5 now available Good evening, A new version of EPIC4 1.0.1 (VMS Edition) is now available.
