Re: [Miami] Can you help me troubleshoot this?
Hi Steven,

Some bizarre ClassAct problem? I'd always found ClassAct to be more crash
happy that MUI. I'm not that fond of MUI, either, but it's the GUI I'm
using.
I've got all of the GUIs installed (MUI, GTLayout and ClassAct, by the
way. And I've never noticed any problem along the lines that you have.
SF> One other question: on the Miami web site, the Miami Main archive is
SF> called 3.2b2, but the '020+ archive is still called 3.2b. Is that
SF> correct?
I'm sure that whatever's on the web site is the latest version.
The about requester, for my Miami says it's 3.2b (09.11.98). And I get
the same result if I check the version in another way.
SF> Oh, and finally, is Holger still accepting DX registrations? The
SF> registration web server seems to be down.
Good luck with that one. You're bound to get a few heated responses.
Nobody's had any contact with Holger for ages, that we know about. There
was a report in the past that the automatic registration procedures were
working, though.
I've just had a quick look at the web site, and the appropriate pages load
up, and the like. But I've, not tried to use the registration procedure.
