IS continued using development versions on the Macintosh, because Qualcomm did not release 4.0 final for Mac in Q2. A decision has been made to focus effort on the Eudora 4.0 for Windows installer and then back release the 3.0.3 installer. For the Macintosh, the decision was made to require Mac OS 8 for Eudora 4.0 due to its altering the behaviour of Mac OS 7.x machines. No more code changes are planned for this version. What's left is final documentation revisions and writing an installer for release.
Some work remains in finalizing some of the components and testing the installer.
The libraries are now building cleanly, but there is a bug that causes a crash after 1,000 to 2,000 messages have been received. The User Interface was developed by a UROP student a few summers ago and needs major reworking. A particular focus was the MacIntosh porting problems experienced with version 5.0. The Service Entry Improvement project, was suspended indefinitely. Although some progress in preparing for service transitions was made, there was not adequate time to do a complete job.
