Hi,

	I saw a message saying you wanted to know why the release was pulled from
the web site... here's the note that did it which explains the reasons why.

Please remove RaQ3E-Update-OS-2.0 from the web and ftp sites.

This patch has two problems:

1.  Swatch is not updated with the list of services that are turned on.

Solution:  If a customer sees this problem the solution is to click the
"Save Changes" button in the Control Panel/Services screen.

2.  If the customer is using external storage for web sites, the UI will
"forget" about them after the patch is installed.  Since the add storage
function also formats the drive, this will destroy any data stored on the
drive.

Solution:  One user on the development list reported that he was able to
restore the data after the storage device was re-added.  He allegedly did
this using the UI backup.  If the customer has no backup then we will have
to find some other way to restore the volume.  Hopefully the customer will
not just attempt to re-add the volume.

please  post a notice on the web site that a new release of the
patch will be forthcomming.
