RELEASE DETAILS

TIMING
The first GUI version was released in stages beginning 6 June 2002. The software itself is ready for delivery now (e.g. for new Bulk or Academic Site License orders). Shrinkwrap packaging will be available in late December 2002 or early January 2003. In the meantime owners of previous versions can upgrade to version 2.1 online, and the new shrinkwrapped version can be ordered now.

SECURITY
Effective 16 July 2002, the cryptographic version of Kermit 95 can be exported to most countries. CLICK HERE for details.

PRICING AND LICENSING
The retail single-copy price of Kermit 95 1.1.20 (released in March 2000) was increased from $59.00 to $64.00 USD; this was first price increase since 1995 and it reflects increased production costs over the years, plus the addition of the C-Kermit CDROM to the basic package. The bulk and academic license prices remain the same. The single-copy price of Kermit 95 2.1 shrinkwraps will rise to $75.00 effective 1 January 2003. But it is a free upgrade to all registered owners of shrinkwrapped (single-license) versions, as well as to all academic and bulk-right-to-copy license holders in their first year of ownership, or whose annual maintenance is paid up according to the license. ORDER NOW TO BEAT THE PRICE HIKE.
