PAC Updates for December 2007

This month, maintenance will be limited to the Public Access Computers, and will fix the following glitches and allow the following:

1. InfraRecord will be reconfigured to use a temporary folder that has write permissions so that CD burning will work.

2. OpenOffice.org will be reconfigured to work with the latest version of Java; without which the Template Wizard will not work.

3. All software policies that restricted executables from running on the desktop or removable drives will be removed. This will allow software like SharePod to run. However, this will not allow patrons to install software.
