Well FPx went away at the 5.0 release. There will be a MP1 release very
shortly (end of quarter), and there will be a 5.1 release to follow =
(don't
have a date). That was how it stood on March 1st when I left VERITAS =
:-).
They were discussing the naming scheme when I left so it could well be =
that
the patch releases will be numbered this way but I have no verification =
of
this yet.

VERITAS tries to release maintenance patches every quarter. Thus MP1 =
would
show up at the end of March early April, MP2 end of June early July etc.
Any new feature type releases IE 5.1 could occur at various times during =
the
year and the date its released may or may not happen close to a MP =
release
:).
