Default Old release notes - 01-04-2009 , 08:57 AM






I am wondering if there is an archive of old (i.e. up to and including
"ancient") GENERIC release notes somewhere accessible? I never got a
really satisfying answer to my B-tree question a few weeks ago and I've
got a few more questions along the same line.

Hello Roy,

First, happy new year to everybody.

In the past (when I was CA) I found an internal server with all what you are
looking for (old release notes).

Don't know if it still existing in Ingres Corp ...

Hope this help,
Regards,

We do have a webpage on one of our servers that has release notes going
back to 6.4. However I think Roy was looking for something a bit older
than that - Btrees definitely weren't new in 6.4.



Cheers

Paul

6.4 onward would be very useful to me. Is the webpage you mention on a
server I can see?

(Knowing when B-tree support was introduced would still be
nice, just to gratify my curiosity. If anyone knows...? Mikey should
remember; but then so should I.)

I have two copies of the Release Notes for INGRES Release 6.4/05 (March
1994). As I know it would be going to a good home, you would be very
welcome to one of them. Would you like me to send you a copy?

And for those who might want to accuse me of being a sad, anorak-
wearing academic with kleptomania (or worse), I have no idea why I have
two copies and I have not kept ALL past Ingres documentation - just
the more interesting ones ;-)

Best wishes
Richard

I was about to say yes please, but I just re-discovered the (floppy!!)
disks with my near-mythical release of 6.4 for Windows NT. So I've got
6.4 covered I think. But very many thanks all the same.

I once tried to keep them all but when you change jobs you can't just
take stuff with you. :-(

Thanks Jean-Pierre. That's a good little write-up but I am certain that
B-tree were introduced long before release 6.0. I'm inclined to think
it was probably Release 3.0 circa 1985/6?

It's good to keep William's page in mind. It is full of treasures.

Roy,

In the "INGRES version 7 reference manual" dated April 8, 1981 there's
definitely no mention of btree - only heap, hash and isam were available at
that time...

From the responses on this thread, the priory clinic could be opening up a
