Information on previous WFO-Advanced upgrades

The July 96 build included numerous fixes and enhancements.
A minor upgrade was done the week of 22 July 96 to fix a few things, with an additional minor change in early August to fix the crash-causing radar graphics. These changes are summarized here. Also at that time a set of hydrology applications was installed.
On 4 September 96, the text software was updated to match the version running in Denver. This version includes text scripts (procedures).
A major upgrade was installed in late November 96.
The first version of the AWIPS Build 3 software was installed 25 Feb 97. Read about it here.
An upgrade, to nearly official Build 3, was applied in Denver in early May 97. (The description includes some enhancements that didn't get installed in Denver until Build 4. I need to go back in and clean that up sometime...)
AWIPS Build 4.0 is currently being installed at NWS field sites. The official release notes are no longer available from NWS.
