RFC 343 IMP System Change Notification May 1972
IV. We hope to accomplish release of IMPSYS 2600 on the next attempt.
Nevertheless, we are not omniscient and may again be thwarted by
difficulties. Accordingly, we are scheduling the next attempt for
Wednesday, May 31, and subsequently every Tuesday (June 6, 13, 20,
...) until the release is successfully accomplished. We will
arrange the release process so that site operator coverage is not
required; nevertheless we hope that the normal site operator
coverage is available in case unanticipated problems develop.
Release of the new system will begin early in the day
(approximately 7 a.m. EDT). We again suggest that sites do not
schedule production work over the network during the release
attempt(s). We will notify each site by phone after the release
has been successfully completed.
Finally, we apologize in advance for any inconvenience caused by
the contortions required to release this new system, and thank all
of the site operations' staffs who worked with us on May 15 for
their cooperation.
