This directory contains beta-test images that might (or might not) be
ready for public consumption.  Like all beta-test packages they have a
few things in common:

- There are no release notes.  We add relnotes to packages during the
  final release process, so if you upgrade using one of these packages
  you'll find that the older package relnotes are still on your
  system.  When you upgrade to the final released images they will get
  replaced.

- These packages are not necessarily in their final form.  We may
  re-release them several times during the quarter, and make no
  pretense that we'll maintain compatibility between the various
  snapshots.  Packages may come and go without warning.

- We have not done as much testing as usual.  You may find that these
  packages fail in spectacular ways, having missing or inconsistent
  prereqs, etc.  Please send mail to <[email protected]> with any
  problems you encounter.

- Installing these packages voids your service contract.  Well, not
  really, but you should have got the message by now that installing
  these is riskier than installing a released package.

If you install any of these packages it's probably best to completely
remove it before installing the released versions, rather than doing
an upgrade.

And, as always, don't call SGI Customer Support with questions.  Send
mail to the freeware mailing list instead.
