Having spoken to JB by phone just prior (or during?) the preparation of the above reference, I am unable to add anything substantial. Thanks, Joe, for summarizing. To emphasize the number of client issue, I had 26 xterms going at one point and at another I had 37 xclocks all without complaints or plumbing problems {broken pipes}:-) The backing store is really neat and does a nice job for a few times but if you click the uwm menu over a window a dozen times, count on abnormal behavior, once I had to do the red-button reboot. Anyone have ideas about that? If there are Apollo uses lacking the Casey fixes, Id be glad to send them directly; just ask.
