Before someone goes wacky and thinks a year has passed since beta 10, the
year needs changing to 2002 there.

And I already uploaded four versions of the page, fixing  small typos.  So
here comes number five ... try again now! :-)

Yes, but I just thought of something.  That thing about it being available
one day later than the Windows' beta...  I always thought the Mac version
was kind of a guinea pig for the others, being first to change and first
released.  Never really knew if there were any real connection between the
Mac one and anything else, just surprised me is all.  Figured the main
source was alright on the Mac maybe one day ahead of, not behind, Windows.

Nevermind me, I don't have a clue how it goes and no need to explain it to
me.

Oh, that is so easy to answer:  First, as I do work on the core code as well
it gives me time to fix things last minute without time pressure to get a
Mac beta finished at the same time.  It also has the benefit that Chris
Cason does all the other updates in docs, revision.txt, etc and I can just
reuse it for the Mac beta :-)

Now I feel awfully sorry for Chris Cason.  So *he's* the one with the
heaviest load to carry!  Organizing the organizers of all the stuff.  Even
got all that extra biz going, selling CD's (still need to get order #4 in)
and all that.

The Mac Beta page states that we should upgrade to CarbonLib 1.5, but
the link goes to CarbonLib 1.3.1. The article number should be 120047
