Yardbird,
Remember, Google is your friend!
I searched for "release candidate" and one of its definitions is:
1. (software development) A version of a program that is nearly ready for
release but may still have a few
bugs
; the status between
beta version
and
release version.
If you examine this definition word by word, you would say that the version
of JAWS released today isn't a "release candidate." However, those who
download it will have to decide for themselves whether it should be.

Hi Robert,
I can see you're technically sophisticated, and I'm certainly not
complaining. But would you mind translating into regular English what you
mean when you talk about "updating to the release candidate?" I'd love to
understand how you'd say that if you didn't know those expressions. I
don't
mean the individual words. I know the words themselves. I'm sure there's
some grammar missing, as there usually is with tech talk, so it makes it
all
the more baffling to me. I'm sure it's not much more esoteric than the
techhy way of calling one's email program a "client," the kind of thing
even
New York Times tech columnist David Pogue complains about. Anyway, I'm not
being partisan. if that kind of diction is cool in tech circles, fine by
me.
But how do you say it in a regular way, sort of?
thanks.

Subject: Error when trying to update
Each time I try to update to the release candidate of JAWS 10 I get an
error
824, sub 0
I first tried the update feature then uninstalled and downloaded the full
version and tried to install, same results.
I have e-mailed JFW.
Any suggestions?
