Experimental Physics and
Industrial Control System

We discussed this over on the core-talk list, and given the extra work the developers have to do coming up to the EPICS Collaboration and ICALEPCS meetings we're not planning a release before then. I'm currently hoping we'll be able to release version 3.14.8 in mid to late October, once everyone is back from Geneva. We can never be completely sure how long it will take once we get started because the developers don't all work on the same architectures, and getting things working on HPUX is generally the most tricky.

Would all sites out there running or planning to run R3.14.x on HPUX please make sure that Ralph Lange knows that you're still relying on his porting work. You should be aware that we'll definitely be dropping HPUX support completely for the R4.x series, and if *nobody* reponds to this request we might even drop it sooner.

We are using R3.14.x on HPUX at Jefferson Lab.  While we are planning
our transition to another architecture (either Sun or Linux), we will
be using HP with 3.14 for some time.  I hope that the EPICS core group
will continue its 3.14/HP support.  As we get further into our planning
we'll develop a transition schedule and share that with the EPICS core
developers so that information can be incorporated into the development
and support plans.
