Thanks to you Garry for reverting the zephyr server for the sake of
winzephyr testers. I have been out of town and not totally on top of
server update announcements, so perhaps could have forseen the
problem. Sorry if this was the case.
Also, Garry, the release of winzephyr is certainly at alpha stage. I
believe you are right to consider it unsupported. A better way to
phrase it might be "soon to be supported," but that is not necessarily
universally known. The testers, including myself, are not all
intimate with the code or authentication protocol, but are certainly
glad to have it back until we can get Ian some time to install and
test the checksum code.
