They are responsible for all additions from 1.6.2 to 1.7.6: KClient menu, login floater, keystroke scrambling, ticket life preference, better error reporting. At that time, 1.6.2 is the public version of KClient, and MIT receives 1.7.6b3 sources from Dartmouth. On October 28 1997, those sources are imported in MIT CVS repository. The binary included with those sources is hacked to change the version number to 1.7.6 and to contain MIT default preferences, and released internally in MIT I/S as 1.7.6. In December 1997, Apple releases Apple Data Detectors which conflict with KClient 1.6.2 (the only available version) In January 1998, Scott McGuire noticed that using KClient menu in 1.7.6b3 purges custom items from help menu in MacZephyr On February 15 1998, a CWCVS bug related to KClient prompts rebuilding KClient from 1.7.6b3 sources for the first time. This is when we notice that the sources actually build KClient 1.7.6b1. On February 17 1998, the CWCVS bug and the help menu bug are fixed. After brief negotiations with Gavin at UMich, who is doing most of KClient development at the time, we decide to bump version number to 1.7.7b1. Because of all of that stuff, we don't really have detailed version history for this time; however, the following approximate reality reasonably well: New features in this revision: - KClient menu - Login floaters - Keystroke scrambling in login dialog - Ticket lifetime preference - Better error reporting - Dartmouth Name Directory support Bugs fixed in this revision: - Conflict between KClient and Apple Data Detectors resolved Other changes in this revision: unknown. ========================================================================
