[REQADM-Users-L] REQADM moved to SourceForge

[Steve W. <st...@al...>]

Summary:
  1. reqadm-users-l mail list moved
  2. REQADM project now purely non-Intel open source development
  3. new release available for download

Greetings.  As you may have noticed, we moved the "reqadm-users-l" 
mailing list from ichips.intel.com to lists.sourceforge.net.  Please
use the new list address when posting to the list.  Or, better yet,
if you want to report a bug, request a feature, or make a general
REQADM community comment, do it in the SourceForge forum provided
on the project website, so we can keep volume on this list as low
as possible.

As for the state of the REQADM project itself...  In 2002, Intel
formally ceased all development efforts on the project.  However,
they had also previously released REQADM for Open Source development,
so the development of this project now continues in the Open Source 
realm.  

*ALL* support issues, questions, etc., should be directed at the
open source development team via the sourceforge site.  Intel cannot
and will not offer support for REQADM.  (Remember, this was never
an "Intel product", but a local tool used by one team of system
administrators within the company.)

We have gone over the code and removed the last vestiges of odd
localisms which had been hardcoded, making REQADM much easier now to 
build elsewhere.  The build process has been streamlined to something
like:
   configure
   make
   make dist
   setup

The distribution includes some sample reports, and some additional
auxiliary tools for keeping REQADM in sync with your own user info.

This now appears on the sourceforge site as "REQADM 1.3"

We have established a project homepage at:
    http://reqadm.sourceforge.net

However, this is still under development and there are some missing
links on that page.  For now, you can get to the main file download
area, bug tracking facilities, etc., from the project URL:
    http://sourceforge.net/projects/reqadm/

Enjoy!
