For those of you who absolutely need the latest winzephyr this
weekend, I wanted to make it avaliable to you.  Ian Garcia and Qing
Dong repaired the checksum and made fixes to all the UI problems of
which we are aware.  Thanks to them for such quick work, which was
done in the time I expected to get an estimate for it!

This installer comes straight out of the Pismere build tree, so has
not been blessed by the Software Release Team.  One suspects we will
have a new distribution point as soon as Jonathan can get to it, but
for now use:
  http://web.mit.edu/zephyr/download/zephyr9march.msi

Ian writes instructions for running against the test server:
   To test the latest changes in the upgraded server, open zephyr.ini, go to
   section [Network] or add it if it's not there, and add the strings

   UseHesiod=0
   Server1=erato.mit.edu
