---+ [[Hp3000DifferenceBetweenPushPull][What's the difference between "PUSH" and "PULL" MPE releases on the HP3000?]]

The "pull" release is an early release that is available to the public, and supported (not beta), by request.  If you need a feature
available, a patch, or just want to try out the new O/S, you can contact the RC and request the "pull" release.  Generally, there may be a couple of features that were not completed yet for the "pull".

The "push" release is the completed version for features.  The shipping division (SRDO) will provide the "push" release to *every* customer on support for that O/S.  This means that within the "push" date, everyone on 3000 support should receive their new update within 3 or so months.
