Release Log
Please note: patches classified as "beta" should be carefully tested on one or two nodes prior to further deployment. Beta patches may be frequently updated; the date code will be changed when that happens. Also note: patches dated after June 1, 2006, are not tested to work with Qcode 2.5, and Qcode 2.5 or earlier CAN NOT be upgraded to 3.x in the field. Your Qcode 2.5 CF will need to upgraded by Qorvus; there is a $100 per CF charge for this service unless you are a "gold" or "platinum" service package subscriber, in which case you pay only for the media and shipping.
