Rosetta Usage Guide Updates The following reflects updates to the usage guide associated with the current release. Chapters are indicated followed by changes within the chapter and a list of known To Do items. Change bars are included in the document to reflect where changes occur in the text. There is not a one-to-one correspondance between notations in this file and change bars in the text. When versions are released to the web, content specific to the distribution should be appened to the CHANGELOG file with a date stamp for the web release. There is no need to do this each time a CVS commit occurs, only for officially released versions. CVS tags should be generated for each release using the form usageX-Y where X is the major release and Y is the update number. Inquiries should be directed to perry.alexander@ieee.org. ------ Information specific to this distribution ------ Items, Variables, Values and Types Mon Jun 25 11:01:25 CDT 2001 -- wpa Removed change bars for start of next version.
