Well, we could ask HP to return to the "classic" practice of calling releases
U-MIT and V-MIT, so I suppose there would be a HPMIT variable with a letter
in it.  Of course, this letter would have no understandable relationship to
the HPVERSION - that would be part of the agreement.<grin>

This topic always reminds me of ordering lunch at HP....(or trying to explain
