    Hi There.
    
    I'm new to tiff and quite puzzled about the master repository state :
    
    - the latest release appears to be  tiff-v3.4-tar.{z,Z} . modification time
      is coherent with HOWTWO and README one,  BUT
      README mentions different size/time/sum/md5 for tiff-v3.4-tar.gz  !!!

Fixed the README, thanks.
    
    - mailing list archive is more than 2 years old which is rather strange,
      considering the beta activity

The archives on ftp.sgi.com are no longer updated automatically because
it's painful to do this automatically through our firewall.
    
    
    there is a fairly recent beta (tiff-v3.4beta036-tar.gz) .  is it stable ?
    which version do you advise me to install ?
    
I use it.

        Sam
