Subject: AMIS beta testers needed
Hi everyone,
AMIS 3 is rapidly approaching stable Release Candidate stage, just now
reaching its third beta release. The DAISY Consortium is looking for
testers to help find the last few bugs. In particular we encourage
organizations that plan to recommend AMIS 3 to their users to
participate in the beta testing.
Instructions for getting started as a beta tester are here:
http://daisy-trac.cvsdude.com/amis/wiki/BetaTesting
This whole announcement is reiterated in the latest DAISY Planet:
http://www.daisy.org/news/news_detail.shtml?NewsId=431
So, if you can get involved, it would really help AMIS! Just drop me
a note off-list.
Thanks
Marisa DeMeglio
