Return To The uReserve Reference Site



This page contains a running history (in reverse chronological order) of the updates and enhancements that have been made to uReserveTM. It is intended to keep you informed of the latest improvements and help you to decide when you want to upgrade.

  • Note: Unless noted otherwise, to upgrade you normally have to configure the latest ureserve.pl script - answering any new configuration questions - and replace the current version of the ureserve.pl script that you have on your site. (Before doing this, you may want to make a backup of your currently working script ... just in case.)
