Mesquite download
If you previously downloaded either the base system or specialized
packages, and intend to download new or updated packages, you
should download new versions of all packages to ensure compatibility.
(The base download now includes specialized packages such as Genesis,
Coalescence and Rhetenor.)
There may be addenda or bug fixes since the versions
released below. We don't have a sophisticated updating system
in place yet; instead you may peruse the directory listing of
the various addenda/bug fixes. The ReadMe files will explain the
purpose of each addendum/bug fix. CHECK HERE
to see the directory listing of addenda and bug fixes.
