Subject: SDI version 2002mar08 now available

SSEC Desktop Ingestor (SDI) Administrator,

SDI version 2002mar08 was recently added to the MUG Web Site
(http://www.ssec.wisc.edu/mug/). See the SDI page by clicking "SSEC
Desktop Ingestor (SDI)" in the Software section along the left side
of the main page. From the SDI page you can select version 2002mar08
or any other available version of SDI software.

Read the section below that corresponds to your type of ingestor (GMS,
GVAR, Meteosat, NOAAPORT, or POES) to determine if version 2002mar08
affects your ingestor and if/when SSEC recommends that you install it.

I. GMS Ingestors
----------------
Version 2002mar08 contain updates to the GMS ingestor to allow reading
of big endian GMS AREAs on little endian machines. Therefore, SSEC
recommends that you install version 2002mar08 as soon as possible on
your GMS ingestors.

II. GVAR Ingestors
------------------
Version 2002mar08 contains updates to the GVAR ingestor to correctly
handle GOES-12 calibration and bands. It also contains a fix to
correctly label GOES-12 sounder band 6. Therefore, SSEC recommends
that you install version 2002mar08 as soon as possible on your GVAR
ingestors.

III. Meteosat Ingestors
-----------------------
Version 2002mar08 does not contain updates to the Meteosat ingestor.
The most recent Meteosat ingestor changes appeared in version
1999nov29, so your ingestor is up-to-date if it's running version
1999nov29 or later.

IV. NOAAPORT Ingestors
----------------------
Version 2002mar08 does not contain updates to the NOAAPORT ingestor.
The most recent NOAAPORT ingestor changes appeared in version
2000jun06, so your ingestor is up-to-date if it's running version
2000jun06 or later.

V. POES Ingestors
-----------------
Version 2002mar08 does not contain updates to the POES ingestor.
The most recent POES ingestor changes appeared in version
2001jul20, so your ingestor is up-to-date if it's running version
2001jul20 or later.
