    Bring out your dead!

    CART MASTER: Nine pence.

    DEAD PERSON: I'm not dead!

    CART MASTER: What?

    CUSTOMER: Nothing. Here's your nine pence.

    DEAD PERSON: I'm not dead!

    CART MASTER: 'Ere. He says he's not dead!

    CUSTOMER: Yes, he is.

    DEAD PERSON: I'm not!

    CART MASTER: He isn't?

    CUSTOMER: Well, he will be soon. He's very ill.

    DEAD PERSON: I'm getting better!

    CUSTOMER: No, you're not. You'll be stone dead in a moment.

    CART MASTER: Oh, I can't take him like that. It's against regulations.

    DEAD PERSON: I don't want to go on the cart!

    CUSTOMER: Oh, don't be such a baby.

    CART MASTER: I can't take him.

    DEAD PERSON: I feel fine!

    CUSTOMER: Well, do us a favor.

    CART MASTER: I can't.

    CUSTOMER: Well, can you hang around a couple of minutes? He won't be long.

    CART MASTER: No, I've got to go to the Robinsons'. They've lost nine today.

    CUSTOMER: Well, when's your next round?

    CART MASTER: Thursday.

    DEAD PERSON: I think I'll go for a walk.

    CUSTOMER: You're not fooling anyone, you know. Look. Isn't there something you can do?

    DEAD PERSON: [singing] I feel happy. I feel happy.

    [whop]

    CUSTOMER: Ah, thanks very much.

    CART MASTER: Not at all. See you on Thursday.

    CUSTOMER: Right. All right.

    My computer used to beat me a chess all the time ..... until I changed the competition to kick boxing.

    Hi Claude.

    A couple of points:

    A) Kim (the original Author) has been enjoying retirement a couple of years now, so not like to respond any time soon. I was a strange feeling passing him on the top 10 posters list at the bottom of the Community home page. I can tell he hasn't been paying attention, otherwise I would have received some bugging for it.

    B) This is a very unofficial and manually updated page, so don't expect it to be a very current guide, but you've now given us that prod to do so.

    C) As you most likely have seen, 24.3 has been posted and should be available for you.

    all fans and customers wait of the released date for gw24.3, gms24.3, messenger24.3

    today (2024-07-16) there are no files on our customer portal!

    do you known the release date from this products? 

  •   in reply to Greiner Claude 

    Now that would require adding another column that could get so messy, because we'd have to include such things as 18.4.0 being the birthday of a previous GW PM

    I think more preferable to have the few such memorable dates mentioned and celebrated elsewhere.  Like we did when we waited for and then celebrated Saint Nikolaus' present yesterday.

    Yes,  for a little bit still.

    As per the lifecycle page,      GroupWise 18.3.1    Released: 12 Apr 2021    Committed Support Ends: 31 Dec 2022

    From experience, there is still some support given if you are a bit behind, but it becomes best effort, and primarily to getting you to the newest version.

    The ability to edit this does not necessarily coincide with knowledge of all the data bits.   if you could put those details here while I work in getting editing skills found, then we'll have both sides covered. Oh Look, I found those edit skills, now just need to rustle up the details.
