This page contains all the changed files of interest to those people wanting to keep their distributions up to date.

Differences from the files distributed in the MAPS Catalog DVD set

For people who have access to the MAPS Catalog four DVD set (email us about getting a copy), this site contains very little not already on the DVDs (which went to press March 18, 2003). Note that the first file listed is an archive file containing all the changed files in one easy-to-download archive.:

In addition to the above changes in content from the DVD, I also note that two of the datafiles on the DVDs were exchanged here for the errata versions, included on DVD01 of all pressings of the DVDs:
FilenameDescription of Change
