Since the announcement last week we have not received any comments on the list or direct by mail.

Neither have we found any (new) bugs, such that in the coming week we will release the next versions of Manager and EntryClient for public use.

A major news item is also that we now consider the re-written Analysis ready for public use in terms of: - reading project files - data management - combination of files (merge, append) - saving, exporting and archiving data files (epx, dta, csv, ddi-3.1) including metadata - frequencies, count, means - documenting content of logging during entry

Although it is a major drawback that one cannot create graphs or cross tables yet - we do think that the functionality now developed is sufficiently mature for release. Function is verified with the validation pgm's, which tests about 500 different aspects

Therefore You may now find the pre-release versions for all three parts on http://www.epidata.dk/testing.php And once we have written a proper introduction document for the new analysis a public release version will be made available.

Best wishes
