Digital will be distributing an OpenVMS V7.1-EFT1 SDK (Software Developer Kit). The SDK contains early releases of the OpenVMS V7.1 VAX and Alpha operating systems. The kit will allow OpenVMS software developers early access to the new features of V7.1, including DECnet/OSI and OpenVMS Cluster enhancements. In addition to the operating system, users can also test compatible layered product kits that will be made available on the Internet at the same time. The SDK package contains all necessary firmware, documentation, and temporary product authorization keys (PAKs) necessary to take full advantage of V7.1. The temporary PAKs will allow use of the software until January 1997. The SDK kit is scheduled to be shipped in early July 1996. The final product will be made available 2HFCY96. The SDK software will run on all Alpha and VAX systems currently shipping. The SDK is intended for development testing only. It should not be used in a production environment. Support for SDK users will be through an Internet newsgroup (vmsnet.sdk.openvms.fieldtest) to report problems, make comments, etc. An engineering support team will monitor the newsgroup and address any issues. The SDK can be used for demo purposes, for customers in your area, sales events, International DECUS events, etc. The following is a list of the software products contained in this kit and their shipping status: Product Status ----------------------------------------------------------------------- OpenVMS Alpha V7.1-EFT1 Field Test OpenVMS VAX V7.1-EFT1 Field Test DECnet/OSI V7.1 Field Test DECnet Phase IV V7.1-EFT1 Field Test DEC TCP/IP V4.1-EFT1 Field Test DECwindows Motif V1.2-4 Shipping Product HOW TO REQUEST THE TOOLKIT: Send SDK request to: STAR::SDK or sdk@star.enet.dec.com The following information is needed: Customer Name: Company Name: Full Mailing Address (no P.O.
