# Change User Description Committed
#1 2828 Kent Laux Copy of Jam sources
//guest/perforce_software/jam/index.html
#18 2459 rmg A note about the 2.5 integration work.
#17 2142 rmg Starting to do the "Jam M/R" -> "Jam" rename, in the top-level
places.
#16 1914 rmg Add a link to the jamming list info and archive pages.
#15 1582 rmg 2.4 release archives.
(These currently say 2.4beta, to keep
from overly tempting fate).

Also, update the index page for //public/jam/ to reflect 2.4,
and add a convenient link to the RELNOTES.
#14 1486 rmg Change link for Jam correspondence (to "opensource@perforce.com")
Add a link to Laura's "Getting Started" tutorial from the 2001
Perforce User's Conference.
#13 1319 rmg Jam 2.3 + Perforce's internal changes.

This change is a drop of the Perforce internal Jam changes
since the 2.3 public release. The individual changes
represented herein are preserved in the
//guest/richard_geiger/intjam/ branch.

The intent of this drop is to provide a base, from which other
contributors' Jam branches may be integrated into. It is not
intended to become a packaged release in this state. We will
be integrating changes from other users prior to creating the
next packaged release.

Please refer to the src/RELNOTES file for an overview of the
changes present in this integration.

  Open Source Engineer at Perforce
#12 1155 rmg The change to utils/index.html was required to get the page
       to render better with Netscape 6.2. (Without the closing </B>
       tags, the whole page from the Depot Browsers section on down
       rendered bold...!)

       I made the same logical change to the other four for consistency,
       though they didn't seem to suffer from the same problem.

       p4dti/index.html still doesn't render right under Netscape 6.2,
       but it's from a different patterns and I couldn't see a quick
       clean fix... so I didn't mess with it for now.
#11 790 rmg Add documentation links.
#10 780 rmg Take 2 for the p4db -> p4web conversion.
(change 788 redux)
#9 779 rmg Back out change 778.
#8 778 rmg Covert all p4db links into p4web links.
#7 486 Perforce staff Jam 2.3.
 See RELNOTES for a list of changes from 2.2.x.

Just about every source file was touched when jam got ANSI-fied.
#6 87 Laura Wingerd Add link to ftp mirror of current Jam/MR source.
#5 67 Laura Wingerd Integrate Perforce's jam changes & project page update
