==> COMPLETE LIST OF ACTION ITEMS/PROBLEMS REPORTS ADDRESSED BY
    THIS RELEASE:

* [1663] Fixed bug: Instrument names with a period char, like "CES3.6" 
  were not correctly handled.

==> COMPLETE LIST OF ACTION ITEMS/PROBLEMS REPORTS WHICH ARE NOT
SOLVED YET:

* This version of P2PP does not deal in a completely safe way with
  cases where an OB is created with one version of an Instrument
  Package, and reviewed with a different version -- this is known as
  the 'IP versioning' problem.

  A specific consequence: execution times will not be computed
  correctly if constant parameters have changed; i.e., parameters with
  a "VALUE" TSF keyword.

* File->RefreshTargetObjectData should ignore checked-in OBs and
  Calibration Blocks.

* [1515] This version of P2PP will report an obscure error message in
  the rare case an OB was queued for execution, but its status is
  still "Defined". The message is something like ""Dependant foreign
  key constraint violation..." -- if this happens, please contact the
  User Support Group (usg@eso.org).

* [1575] It may happen, for unknown reasons that an instrument's
  "summary.idx" file is empty.
  Symptom: no templates are available for that instrument.
  Workaround: delete the empty summary file, and restart P2PP. The
  file will be recreated automatically.

* In P2PP or OT one may have noticed the occational stack trace when
  changing user and/or exiting windows.
  The stack trace appears as follows:
  java.lang.NullPointerException
    at javax.swing.KeyboardManager.unregisterMenuBar(KeyboardManager.java:312)
    at javax.swing.JMenuBar.removeNotify(JMenuBar.java:647)
    at java.awt.Container.removeNotify(Container.java:1260)
    at javax.swing.JComponent.removeNotify(JComponent.java:3186)

  This bug is a Swing bug, which was fixed in Jan 1999, available from
  Java 1.2 onwards. It has no effect on the operation of the P2PP or
  OT applications.
