Subject: Re: Chronology - Questions to John about JSW64 release dates

 

Thanks a lot for this, John.
Regarding point 2 (the date JSW64 Hacklevel 10 was introduced), I now have it in the following entry:
28 July   JSWED 2.1.5 is released by John Elliott, introducing Hacklevel 10 of the JSW128 game engine.
for the following reason:
You say that according to the JSWED changelog HL10 was introduced on 24 July 2004.
This must have been your "internal" update, not yet made public, because in message 4353 on 28 July 2004 you said, "Fortunately it's fairly easy to fix, and it WILL [my emphasis] be fixed in HL10" (so at this point HL10 was not public yet), and then in message 4354 on the same day you announced the release of JSWED 2.1.5 / JSW64 HL 10 (someone's a quick worker ;-) ).
As a matter of fact, it's something that escaped me when browsing the old Group messages; had I spotted it, I wouldn't have asked the question.
All your other info fits in nicely with the data I have collected before, so it all seems clear.
Thanks again for your help!
Daniel
