Good Morning,

The WinZephyr Release Team is preparing for the release of WinZephyr 
1.0.  WinZephyr 1.0 will resolve a security issue with the previous beta 
version.  The previous WinZephyr version allowed for a user to be able to 
subscribe to, and receive, another user's Zephyrs.  An upgrade will be made 
to the Zephyr server on April 1, which will cause the previous WinZephyr 
version to fail.  Please download the current beta from the link 
below.  Please note that a customized installer should be ready very 
soon.  We will notify you when it is ready, if you wish to wait.  The URL 
will be the same.

A list of current windows Zephyr users has been generated, through an 
analysis of the poorly authenticated connections to the Zephyr servers, due 
to the bug in the WinZephyr client.  Those users have been added to a 
winzephyr-test mailing list.  Permissions for the installer directory have 
been set to include winzephyr-test.


If you have any questions regarding the release process, please contact us, 
by sending mail to winzephyr-release@mit.edu.

Best Regards,

Lisa Robinson
